I worked with Bobbie & Bonnie @ VGK in the early '70s. What a wonderful person she was, always a smile and something nice to say. Everybody was younger then. From the video it looks like she had a good life. May she rest in peace.

Bobbie & my mother-in-law, Ruth Saylor, were friends the 1950’s when Bobbie and family lived in Leesport, PA. The Imperatos and the Saylors remained friends even though they eventually moved a distance from each other. Bobbie, accompanied by her husband, regularly visited Ruth, to Ruth’s delight. She always looked forward to these visits; Bobbie was always upbeat, loving, and fun to talk with. It meant a lot to Ruth that, even at age 96, her lifetime friend still cared about her.

We met Bobbie & Harry 5 yrs ago when we moved next door to them. She was nit just a neighbor she was a Friend..We miss her smile our chats over the fence. Our deepest if sympathy to the entire Bates family and a beauitful family she had..God has a Angel with him noe she suffered and now she is free..Miss yoy my FRIEND..

Bobbie was more than a Sister in Law to me. I was honored to be the best man at their wedding. She was always their for me when I needed someone to talk to or even visit. Always had a stocking hanging on the fireplace for me for Christmas. She was very much family and was the best thing that happened for my brother and nephews as she help raise them. She will really be missed.

Bobbie was one of those people who are a force, a powerhouse, an anchor. She fiercely loved Harry, the kids and her family, and it showed. She radiated compassion, a kind of "big love"" for everybody. And she showed great kindness to me in the times I was priveleged to be in her presence, mostly with Harry's brother Bob. She and Harry were always welcoming and hospitable even though I was just an acquaintance and they really made me feel special. She was truly a great lady with a big heart. I know Harry and the family will really miss her. My deep condolences to all the Bates family. With great sympathy, from Robert Lalli

With deepest Sympathy for your loss! We will miss Bobbie dearly! She was a wonderful person & neighbor! Love Mike & Janet

I work with her husband, Harry and had the wonderful blessing of meeting Bobbie a few times thru the years. She was a very special person and even when you first met her, she made you feel like you had known her for years. Rest in peace, Bobbie.

I worked with Bobbie for several years, up until her retirement. She was always a little slice of sunshine in the day. Deja Spigner
