I never met Bobbie, but through her daughter Connie I know she was a fine woman and Christian.
Looking forward to your favorite song being sung.
Grateful to know she stepped into Glory with one breath and by now must be showing off Andrew to her kin. May the God of all comfort ease the separation on Earth, flood Mr Karnes with memories of days gone by, and continue to encourage those who remain with her 90-year example of joy and peace.
Bobbie and Dave hold a very special place in my heart. They were my “adopted” parents along with my Aunt Edith for many years. I spent many hours in the living room talking and seeking advice and guidance from them.I always trusted and respected their insight on so many topics. Always left their home feeling so much love and gratitude for their friendship. Our visits always ended in a big hug, kiss on the cheek and Bobbie saying to me “be careful and listen for the train before crossing the tracks!”
With sadness we learned of the passing of this great lady. With joy we shared many wonderful days with her. Her smile could light the darkness. Her hugs enveloped us with love. Missing her always. With love, Bob and Leslie Bateman (Tim's parents) We made a donation to American Heart Association in her memory.
Dave, Connie and all your family. We are so sad to hear the passing of Ms Bobbie. Robert and I feel privileged for having known her. We remember her smile and always greeting us with a warm hug. I will always remember her calling me Chris. Bobbie was a precious lady and we will miss her. May God comfort you and give you peace at this time.
God Bless you all! Love, Christine & Robert Rea
Dave, Connie and family, my heart is broken with yours and although I’m grieving, I’m rejoicing with you because without a doubt, we all know where Ms Bobbie is now. Sitting beside and singing with Ms Bobbie in the choir was pure joy. No matter how hard it was for her to get around, she never complained and loved to sing praises to her Lord. I was blessed that God told me to go see Ms Bobbie on Sunday. She smiled the whole time we were there, and I had the privilege of hearing her say I love you one last time. I will always cherish that and having had this precious lady in my life. May God comfort you all. Leon and Elaine Bozarth
