Bobbie Jean’s sister Angel Carter also broke her silence after her death with a touching post. “To my older sister Bobbie. You had a great sense of humor, and a lively spirit,” she wrote in part of the message. “Growing up, I was your baby, and you were my best friend. Life wasn’t fair to you, that I know. Sometimes, it feels like you didn’t have a shot, no matter what.”
Nick also later took to Instagram to share a message about the loss. “It may take a lifetime to fully process the loss my family has endured over the years – most recently, with the sudden passing of our sister Bobbie Jean,”he wrote alongside a throwback photo of the two siblings holding hands in swimsuits. “I am completely heartbroken. Thank you for all your love and kind words. We are reminded again that life is precious, fleeting and to cherish the time we have with the ones we love. I know she is finally at peace with God. I love you BJ.”
