Born in Tooele, Utah, on May 29, 1950, to Alois and Georgia Ciesla, Bobbie lived a life full of heart, laughter, and strength. She was an amazing mom and an even more amazing granny-her love, strength, and kindness touched everyone who knew her. Family was her greatest joy, her presence filled every room with warmth and laughter.
Bobbie is survived by her two children, Kathy (Walter) Finley of Queen city, Texas, and Rob (Cynthia) Young of Texarkana, Texas; her sister, Carole (Dale) Streeter of West Valley City, Utah; her five grandchildren, Amanda (James) Davenport of Queen City Texas, Michael Finley of Salt Lake City, Utah, Kady(Ryan) Doyle of Midvale, Utah, Ravyn (Dalton) Howell of Nash, Texas, and Robert Young Jr. of Salt Lake City, Utah; along with her five great-grandchildren, McKenzie, Kaylee, Ayden, Rhiannon, and baby Katherine; her dear nieces, nephew, and friends who loved her deeply.
The family wished to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful staff at Rocky Mountain Care- Cottages on Vine and the Rocky Mountain hospice team for the love, compassion, and kindness they showed Bobbie over the years.
Her hands raised children , rocked babies,and wiped away more tears than anyone could count. Her wisdom and humor filled every room, and her love left fingerprints on every soul she touched.
