Claudia Bobbi Morris

Bobbi, age 73, passed away July 26, 2014 with her family by her side. Bobbi was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and niece. She was born to the late Raymond and Clara Troncin-Puchner. Bobbi was proud to be a third generation Arizona native and graduate of Camelback High School. She went on to earn degrees from Phoenix College and Grand Canyon University. Until her retirement, she taught special education and was a reading specialist in several school districts including: Alhambra, Washington and Fowler. Together with her adoring husband, Erdie and Bobbi traveled world-wide. Bobbi was a dedicated volunteer for numerous non-profit organizations in the valley and co-founded a recreational center for the disabled. She was an avid reader and enjoyed shopping, scrapbooking, gardening, being outdoors and spoiling their cat Oreo, but her passion was her family. Bobbi is survived by her husband of 53 years Erdie, son's Michael and Terry, daughter-in-law Vicki, granddaughter Ashley, sister Jacki, Aunt Mary Jo Clardy, numerous cousins, nieces and nephews, as well and many life-long friends. Bobbi's kind, loving, outgoing spirit and generosity will truly be missed. Her family would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Beatitudes, Mountain Ranch Home Care, and Hospice of the Valley for their kindness and loving care.
