Barbara was my friend of many years at French High School. Susan and Barbara, you have lost a caring mother. David and Richard, she never ceased to talk about your accomplishments. You children were first in her thoughts.

Dear Barbara, David, Richard and Susan

I was so sad to hear about your mother. We saw each other in Walmart one day and had the nicest conversation. She was so proud of all of you. Sorry I missed the service. I saw pending on Friday and checked back late afternoon on Saturday and saw I missed it all. Would have loved to see all of you. Don't see many people from the Dawndale neighborhood.

To all of Bobbie's family, my deepest sympathy for our loss. My daddy was Uncle L. G. Collins and was the youngest of the thirteen Collins kids from Opelousas, La. I really love the picture of Bobbie, she looks like an angel. I am sorry I missed being with you, we were in Houston and out of touch for a few days. I look back a few weeeks ago and have with me an unforgittable memory of my visit with Bobbie over the phone. Don't forget you do have cousin's, family and friends somewhere out there that Love and care for You. All our Love and Prayers- Gordon and Patsy Collins.
