Barbara's obituary

Barbara Edwards Gibbs

May 5, 1952 – September 30, 2021

Barbara Edwards Gibbs passed away peacefully with her daughter by her side on September 30, 2021, after a brief battle with cancer. She was born and raised in Bisbee, graduating from Bisbee High School in 1970. After graduating she moved to Tucson where she lived for 46 years and moved back to her beloved Bisbee in 2016.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Eddie and Jimmie (Zorka) Martin, and husband Robert Edwards.

Survivors include her daughter Dana Edwards, son Tyler Edwards, grandchildren Kelton, Rain, and Neveah, and sister Darleen Martin (Punkie).

Bobbie was known to many for being passionate about her family, friends, and Bisbee.

Our family would not be where it is today if we hadn’t had her guiding our way.

The family will gather privately for her service per her request. A celebration of life will be announced later for friends.

Although we miss you dearly you are in a better place, your light will shine brightly within us.
