Elizabeth Marie Wahlers was born May 16, 1933 at Antelope, the daughter of Clarence F. and Harriet (Quam) Wahlers. She was raised and educated in the Antelope area, and graduated from Taylor High School in 1951. She went on to complete three years of nurses training at Bismarck Hospital, becoming an RN in 1954.

Liz married her high school sweetheart, Milton Bobb on January 21, 1955 at St. John’s Lutheran Church, Richardton. To this union four children were born. They lived in Colorado Springs, Colo., prior to moving to Billings, Mont. in 1959. The family moved to the Bobb farmstead in 1963. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1977, and in July of 2014 was diagnosed with cancer.

She had served as a girls 4-H leader, taught Sunday School, was the Sunday School Superintendent, belonged to the MS support group, and the Tuesday morning Bible Study. She enjoyed reading, knitting and sewing, and loved to cook. Every morning she prayed for each of her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren individually, and this faith guided her all her life.

Liz is survived by her husband, Milton; their four children, Joy (Jim) Mische, Pipestone, Minn., James (LaVonne) Bobb, Taylor, Jay (Cindy) Bobb, Edgerton, Minn., and Joel (Kjrsten) Bobb, Fort Madison, Iowa; 11 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and three sisters, Vivian Elkins, Taylor, Janice (Paige) Herrig, Mission Hills, S.D., and Cheryl (Ed) Keenan, Houston, Texas; and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Daniel Wahlers; and brother-in-law, Elmo Elkins.

In lieu of flowers the family prefers memorials to the Bismarck Cancer Center, or to the Taylor Ecumenical Mission.
