My deepest sympathy to you, Jill, Patti, and Robin and Families. I know you will keep Bobbie “alive” for your children with memories as you have done for Bob. So many memories I have which I’ll share once I have your addresses. As I think of this extraordinary person I am aware of her joy, her gentleness, her loyalty. Never will I see a lighthouse without remembering both Bobbie and Bob.

May all of Bobbie’s loved ones cherish the memories of her nurturing the family tree and the beautiful flowers in the gardens. The spring flower bulbs about to appear bring a new awakening, like the heavens opening up to welcome Bobbie home again. Peace & God Bless.

To Robin, Patti and Jill: My deepest sympathies on the loss of your mom. I am the cousin of your dad and I loved both of your parents very much. As a child, I spent many treasured times with them when they began dating and after their marriage. They would take my twin brother and me on fun outings and when Robin was born, I was so delighted that they let us take her for rides in the stroller around the block when we visited our Aunt Ida, your Grandmother. I am so glad that my husband, now deceased, had the chance to meet Bob & Bobbie when we visisted in 2009. Bob presented me with a very special boat he had hand-crafted — and christianed “The Blondie” — the name he always called me. Your mom made us a delightful lunch and we had such a wonderful time visiting. They were true blessings in my life for as long as I can remember. I pray that you and your families will find comfort in your cherished memories. Peace be with you. Judi Logan
