In remembering Bobbie, one easily recalls her kindness, selfless good nature, beautiful smile, loving heart, and willingness to be of help, service, and support to so many. She had a wonderful gift of making sure everyone who had the privilege of coming in contact with her knew that they were special and loved.

In our everyday lives, we should all aspire to encourage, respect, and love one another with the same pleasant zeal and nature as we witnessed from our sister in Christ, Mrs. Bobbie Dale Pickering.

She is experiencing a joyous Heavenly reunion with her husband, Mr. James Ray Pickering; son, Mr. Charles Mike Pickering; father, Paul Bardie Breazeale; mother, Annie D. Chandler Breazeale.
