Dear Family,
Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of “Miss Bobboe.” She was a wonderful friend, community advocate and just a very good person. I remember the collaborations we did together when I was pastor at Ray’s Temple COGIC. Miss Bobbie never turend anyone away and was so very helpful in providing beds for us with people who needed a place to sleep. Certainly, the scripture that highlighted being fed, housed, visited and cared for applies to her. I know she is rejoicing in the Lord and “walking around heaven all day!” I am very sorry, but my cell phone was malfunctioning and I did not get the message until after the funeral service. Please accept my deepest condolences.
 
Pastor K.M. Brown, Sr.

My sympathies to the family and loved ones of Ms. Bobbie. I remember her as one of the great “true” social workers in Lancaster County. At Crispus Atticks she would treat EVERY person with the utmost dignity and go well beyond her role to help find someone a place to lie their head for the night when the facilities were full. It was an honor to know her.

To Miss Bobbie’s Family and all those who had the pleasure of knowing and working with her,
Bobbie was a fountain of hope, a laugh that dared life’s challenges that tried to best her, a piercing intelligence that held everyone she met to accountability, a willingness to share a step up to those that needed support and a willingness to kick butt (with love & kindness, of course) to help someone out of depression and or self-pity and back to their hopes and dreams.   She could be a warrior princess that challenged bureaucratic nonsense, and yet could cry with others in their losses.  She was a magnificant human being who knew who she was, where she stood, and before whom she stood.  It was an honor to have known and work with her.   She will be missed by many.  Heaven just got a new angel.

To Ms. Bobbie’s family:
Ms. Bobbie will be missed by many.  Her advocacy on behalf of people marginalized by society is not forgotten. Bobbie was the voice of people who were often silenced. The Lancaster community was blessed with her presence.  Several months ago, I had the good fortune of spending a morning visiting her.  We had a grand time talking and laughing about the “good old days”.   I am grateful that I was blessed to have know her both personally and professionally.  When she would introduce me to people, she always said this is Ty’s other grandmother and then explain the connection.  Bobbie always made me feel like family.  She was a gift to all that knew her.  Always willing to go the extra mile and give second chances.  I sincerely hope your fond memories will give you peace and comfort in the days ahead. With our sincere sympathy, Becky Corbin Powell & Family

Bobbie has been such a huge presence in the Lancaster community, especially the Southeast area which we both loved so much. All who have known and worked with Bobbie know the depth of her convictions on equality. Bobie was a strong, loving and most of all honest woman. She said what she believed and was never afraid to speak out. My deepest sympathy goes out to her kids and extended family. I am proud to call her a friend. Billie Jo Herr, Cary NC
