Bobbi Rae Carter's Retirement Party

I just watched the replay on streaming HSN and it was so nice and heart warming. I don't think there was a dry eye in the place.

Not a dry eye at my house either, loved it!!! I met Bobbi at the studio tour in 2000, she was just darling.

If HSN hadn't left Florida I think Bobbi wouldn't have retired.

I agree, she may have at least stayed part time in FL, but at 73 who can blame her for choosing her beautiful home in FL. over snowy PA.

I remember when Bobbi remarried in early 1996, Dan Dennis interviewed her at Christmas time in 1995 and she announced she was getting remarried to Jerry Carter, she was so happy.

@Estellee I am not familiar with her, as I never watched HSN...but I have certainly heard of her. I did watch Shawn's pod cast with Bobbi. Bobbi did say, it was a hard decision, but she didn't want to move. She had family,kids, grands...her life, home, etc. When Shawn asked her if she would have stayed if she didn't have to move, she said YES! She said she would orobably have worked till she was too old to talk, lol. She seems like she has tons of energy to do so, lol,

Yes, I did watch some of her party. Love Bobbi Ray. She is one host that will be missed. Won't be the same without her smiling face.

I've always enjoyed Bobbi as a host. I did miss her party though-will try to catch it though if I can still...

I always thought that she and Adrienne from Signature Club A were really good friends and will probably keep in touch with each other.

She always has a lot of energy and a smile on her face......I hope she enjoys her retirement. I would say at 73-she has earned it!!!
