December 20, 1938 - March 6, 2015

In loving memory ~

Daughter, sister, friend to many, wife, mother, auntie and grandma extraordinaire. Bobbie was shy, strong, content and Dad's comedy sidekick and soul-mate for 55 years.

Raised in Edmonton in a loving family she became a talented singer and pianist and lover of all animals, especially horses and dogs. Bobbie and Leo migrated to BC in the early 60s. They enjoyed years of exploring, boating and RV journeys to the Arizona desert that totalled over 65 return trips. Mum held several jobs, including many years at Ivy Green Marina. Bobbie's volunteerism never wavered throughout her life.

Mum loved popcorn, cold toast, reading in the sun and snapping her chewing gum. Famous for her legs, fudge, and single raised eyebrow - forever assigning comical voices to all creatures: she loved them all.

Easy going, grey-eyed and beautiful, we have missed her profoundly for a decade. Plant up some pansies in her honour & hold her in your hearts with us,

Leo, Dawn & Leslie
