BOBBIE ROSE OSTERLAND

Funeral services for Bobbie R. Osterland, 78, of Monroe, LA, will be held at 
10:00 a.m., Friday, May 20, 2016 at North Monroe Baptist Church with Rev. 
Warren Eckhart and Rev. David Worthington officiating. Interment will follow at 
Mulhearn Memorial Park Cemetery.

Mrs. Bobbie Rose Johnson Osterland, passed away at St. Francis Hospital on May 
15, 2016 during open heart surgery. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, 
aunt, and friend, who was a constant example of the strong Christian woman. At 
4 ft. 11 inches, she was "small but mighty", as some would describe her, always 
there with a hug, smile, or words of comfort and support for those around her. 
Her death leaves a hole in the heart of the Monroe/West Monroe community.

Born in Alexandria, LA, on Sept. 7, 1937, only child of Rose and Bob Johnson, 
Bobbie was a positive, joyous person who loved her family and friends, church, 
art, dancing, and horses. She married Raymond Osterland on Oct. 7, 1961 and 
their union was blessed with two lovely daughters, Jana Lea Osterland Norton, 
married to Mark Norton, and Tracy Ann Osterland Hanson, married to D.J. Hanson. 
She was an equally loving grandmother to Cole Norton, Madison Daniel, and 
Morgan Daniel. "Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and 
he praises her." - Proverbs 31:28.

"Miss Bobbie" as she was known to many, began teaching at Bayou Gymnastics when 
her daughters were young, continuing to teach for 25 years. Through her life 
and this ministry of teaching, she served as a positive example of God's love 
towards thousands of her students and their family members over the years. Her 
students have said that they loved her as their teacher as children and grew to 
love her even more as a friend as they became adults.

Bobbie was an active member in many ministries of North Monroe Baptist Church. 
She used her artistic talents both at the church and around the community, 
decorating for parties, weddings, and other activities.

Pallbearers will be D.J. Hanson, Mark Norton, Richie Graeber, Jody Lofton, Jim 
Jenkins, and Jimmy Bonnett. Honorary pallbearers are: Kevin Welker, Alex 
George, Joe Maggio, Chris Fulton, Sal Pettito, and Mike Venable.

Visitation will be 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Thursday, May 19, 2016 at Mulhearn 
Funeral Home, Sterlington Rd., Monroe, LA.

Memorials may be made to Louisiana Baptist Children's Home or North Monroe 
Baptist Church.
