Bobbie's Obituary
On November 12, 2021, our beloved Roberta (Bobbie) Jean Allbery-Cotton passed at her home in Columbus Ohio.
Bobbie was many things; a chef, soldier (serving her country as an Army Medic), seamstress, gardener, avid reader, activist, animal parent, loving family member and friend who was grounded in her Christian beliefs. She was deeply caring and always willing to lend a hand to someone in need. Her benevolent light did not stop shining when she crossed the rainbow bridge but continues to burn bright through those she left behind who carry fourth her love as we illuminate the people around us with the same kind, giving spirit.
Bobbie was preceded in death by her mother Beverly, and is survived by her father Robert, brothers Russell and Scott, sister Lorraine (Lorrie), nephew Austin and niece Taylor. A private memorial service will be held at a future date. Please honor Bobbie’s memory by a random act of kindness or thoughtful giving to a person or animal in need.
