Bobbe Jensen Barbara "Bobbe" Schutte Jensen, 86, died Tuesday, June 3, 2014, in Collegedale. Bobbe will be best remembered for her unwavering love of God, loyalty to her husband, unselfishness and love for her children, tireless commitment to her grandchildren and her unwavering loyalty to her brothers, sisters, and friends. Bobbe was born on Nov. 3, 1927, in Richmond, Va. While attending college in Takoma Park, Md., she met and married her husband, Robert L. Jensen. Robert later added a Medical Doctorate to his name through the hard work, support and dedication of Bobbe, who stood proudly, as so many other wives have, as he reached his dream and graduated in 1964 from Loma Linda University in California. Together they reached this goal that directed their lives through many adventures. Later, Bobbe graduated with a Business Degree from Cleveland State Community College and used that tool to assist her husband in running his offices and home. Bobbe always stayed very involved in the lives of her three children, eight grandchildren, and her nieces and nephews. She had a true passion to support them and help them reach their personal goals and influence their love of Jesus. Her greatest desire was to see her whole family in heaven. Bobbe was a lifelong member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and was a current member of the Collegedale SDA church family.
