Today was Bobbi's funeral. She passed away last Wednesday evening after fighting breast cancer. She was my dad's second wife, and the mother of my brother, Corey. He did a fantastic job fulfilling his mother's wishes. The funeral was well attended, with over 95 people at the viewing last night. I'm not certain how many were at the funeral today, but it was quite a few. I never realized how many lives she touched or how many friends cared so deeply for her. She will be missed my many.
