Norm, Tony, and Carrie - Tom and I are so sorry to hear about Bobbie´s passing. Bobbie was a second Mom and so influential in Mindy´s upbringing. She was always there for us in our time of need. The years of day care she provided, the Christmas parties, preschool opportunities, dance lessons and recitals, lunches with the kids, etc, etc. Bobbie even managed to teach me basic quilting. Bobbie holds a special place in our hearts. Thoughts and Prayers, Tom and Kathy Glasmann

So sorry to hear about Bobby. I´m at Bob for the first time in 2006 when she was appraising in Tucson Arizona. I was just starting my journey as an appraiser and she was so helpful to my education and allowed me to follow her along at the Quilt shows for a couple of years. After I was certified, I always made sure to meet up with her or sometime have lunch with her during the Tucson Quilt Show. She had a great impact on my career and I appreciate it so much.
May the Lord bless and keep you and comfort you, and hold the memories of in your heart.
