Roberta Lee 'Bobbi' Carlson, 83

Bobbi passed away Friday, Oct. 24, 2014, from a long-time heart condition. She was born to Kenneth and Leona Jacobs in Cope, Colo., on April 13, 1931, the second of eight children.

Bobbi traveled a lot in her life, living in Thailand, Turkey, Maryland, Washington D.C. and New Mexico working various government jobs. In 1978 she found her dream home in Bayview, Idaho, where she loved to garden, go snowmobiling and spend her days on the lake fishing with her husband, Johnny Carlson.

Bobbi worked payroll for the Fernan Ranger Station until she retired in 1992. She flew in a helicopter to a Fire Command Station in the Panhandle National Forest, working payroll for the firefighters - an experience she never forgot.

Bobbi was preceded in death by her husband, Johnny Carlson; daughter Ricki Hahn; brothers Carl and Herbert Jacobs, and sister Nola Jacobs. She is survived by her son, Dennis Hahn (Judy), and daughter Tina Wilde (Dave); grandson Colin Hahn; sisters Georgia Pelot, Marlis Vaughn and Barbara Welschinger; her good friends Donna and Jan; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Bobbi was a wonderful and generous person, a loving mother, and will be missed by all. Rest in peace mom, love you always.

At Bobbi's request no services will be held.

Yates Funeral Home has been entrusted with the care of final arrangements. Please visit Bobbi's online memorial at www.yatesfuneralhomes.com and sign her guestbook.
