The passing of Bobbie Sharp

1 min read

To the editor:

It was with great sadness that I read in The Island Reporter the passing of Bobbie Sharp. I was lucky to have had the opportunity get to know Bobbie, and her husband Tom, when she was the cooking columnist for The Islander newspaper when I was editor there a few years ago.

Her column was a popular feature in The Islander, and she was an excellent cook – I got the chance to sample her food when I was invited to a gathering at her island home one holiday season. It was a real treat.

She was a great lady and will be missed by all who knew her – and, I’m sure, by those who read her column.
