It is with great sadness that the family of Barbara “Bobbi” Jean Teigen (Roeper) announce that she passed peacefully in her sleep on October 17, 2026 in Lewiston, Idaho. Bobbi was born on June 3, 1946 to Edna Mader Roeper and Percy Roeper in Cottonwood Idaho.

She is survived by her three daughters Inga (and Maurice) Paige, Tara (and Jody) Kibler, and Gretchan Teigen, and one son Peter (and Lisa) Teigen.

Bobbi was a devout Catholic mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt who worshipped for over 50-years as a member of Sacred Heart Parish in Boise Idaho. She spent much of her time living and walking in the Lord’s footsteps, always putting the needs of others above her own. She volunteered at St. Vincent DePaul, with various church groups and other organizations.

Aside from her faith, there was nothing more important to her than family. She always enjoyed opening her heart and home to family and friends. She loved hosting cookouts, Christmas dinner, Bunco night, and anything else that brought friends and family close together.

Bobbi was born in Cottonwood, Idaho and lived her youth on the Camas Prairie where she graduated from St. Gertrude’s Academy in 1964. After high school, she moved to Lewiston, Idaho for cosmetology school. After cosmetology school she moved to Boise where she raised her family.

Much of her professional career was spent at the Bureau of Land Management as a human resource officer, followed by three years at Natural Resources and Conservation Services before retirement. Upon retirement she enjoyed traveling to visit family and friends, golfing, going to dinner and the movies, watching the Seattle Mariners, and participating in various prayer groups and church
