We have known Ms. Bobbitt for several years; in fact, members of her extended family have been friends of the Poe family for longer than Mr. Poe and I have been together. She has two furry "babies," Sophie and her daughter Sally - some of the cutest and sweetest black labs you ever did see.
Ms. Bobbitt has been another very helpful friend since we moved to "the big city." She has provided encouragement, companionship and wheels as our "Rapid Transit" driver to and from services during the week. And she makes a mean bowl of turkey-vegetable soup!
I would say that Ms. Bobbitt embodies the well-quoted line from A Midsummer Night's Dream - "and though she be but little, she is fierce." Although smaller in stature, she is a giant in heart. She does everything with impressive intensity and fervor - from work to Bible study. She is extremely successful both as one "of the world" and one "in the world" would count success. In her can be seen a shining example of patience, meekness, and agape love that I appreciate and admire.
