Republican Senator John Barrasso of Wyoming announced the passing of his wife, Bobbi Barrasso, on Thursday after a brave struggle with cancer. In a statement, Senator Barrasso fondly remembered his wife as a courageous and devoted individual who was a staunch advocate for Wyoming. He expressed that after the challenging battle with cancer, Bobbi is now at peace and with the Lord. Bobbi, in addition to her role as a dedicated wife and mother, was recognized for her leadership and as a friend to everyone she encountered.
Bobbi Barrasso faced health challenges in 2022 when she underwent surgery to remove an intracranial lesion, as reported by Wyoming News. Prior to this, she had fought and triumphed over breast cancer. Known for her active involvement with the Susan G. Kamen Race for the Cure and Kamen Wyoming events, Bobbi was committed to raising awareness and support for cancer-related causes.
Her advocacy extended to addressing mental health issues, as she founded the group “Congressional Spouses for Suicide Prevention and Education.” Through this initiative, Bobbi worked towards promoting awareness to save lives and combat suicide. The passing of Bobbi Barrasso is a significant loss, and Senator John Barrasso expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support during this difficult time.
