Good morning and thanks much for the information on Bobbi Ray Carter's retirement celebration. I have watched her almost her entire career. I started watching HSN way before anyone had cable tv using the rabbit ears antenna of old on the VHF frequency. It didn't always come through clearly either. Yes, that is way back in the day!

I'll do my best to tune in during non-working hours as I hope most if not all of the shows are in the evening. Fingers crossed.

She had a very nice celebration on air for her 40th HSN Anniv 2 years ago.

I met her in person on the studio tour in FL in 1999, she had very short hair then, and at the time we were there she was on the air with Jerome Alexander and his beauty products. Time sure flies. Bobbi and I are the same age, 73.

I wonder if she would be retiring if she could have stayed in FL.

@Shelbelle

I still have a Jerome Alexander Marble powder compact...it's very large and I have used it sparingly since I'm retired and don't wear much makeup.

He had some decent products but always looked like he overdid the spray tan or bronzer.

Seems a LONG time ago!

Now she is one host that I will miss. She is a great, fun host. Sorry to see her go but she has been working a long time at HSN. Wishing Bobbi Ray a happy retirement!.

Yes, and I dont think she has really been on air that much since the move, part time. I am certain she must still have her beautiful home in FL.

Remember Tootie? Not sure of the spelling, I don't watch HSN much anymore - prefer the Q, but I did buy a lot back in the day.
