Bobbie is Frankie’s wife and the daughter of a Polish immigrant, Elizabeth Liesersbach. After her boyfriend leaves her, Elizabeth decides to raise Bobbie alone. By all accounts, Bobbie had a difficult childhood and loved Frankie fiercely. She sends him a postcard while he is in the army, which kindles their romantic relationship. In 1947 they are married and soon after, Bobbie is pregnant. On the day of the plane crash, Bobby agrees to fill in as the flight attendant. She is nervous, and ultimately dies with her husband in the plane crash.
