Sending love and prayers to all of your family and friends. Kenneth Chatman and Julia Chatman Kade.
I certainly will miss my sweet friend Bobbie! We spent lots of time on the phone and in her home talking, laughing, and crying. I always knew I could count on her to pray for me. She was so precious to me. I sure will miss your witty personality. I am so thankful this is not the end! See you soon my friend I loved so much! Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Psalm 116:15 Prayers and love to this precious family!
With loving memory of Bobbie. My prayers of comfort go to all the family at this time of sorrow. We served the Lord together in Scotland.
So sorry for your loss. We will be praying for all of you.

Bobbie was such a blessing to me as she and Jim served the Lord in Edinburgh. She was so faithful to the Lord and very spiritually wise. She gave me lots of good advice and lots of encouragement in my Christian faith. She was a true friend and will always be remembered. She was faithful to the Lord and such a blessing. What a wonderful testimony and is now with the Lord. She will be greatly missed.
