May 18, 1943 – September 20, 2025

Roberta Louise “Bobbi” Lahti (Peart), age 82, passed away peacefully on September 20, 2025, surrounded by her loving family.

Born on May 18, 1943, Roberta — lovingly known as Bobbi — lived a full and generous life marked by love, resilience, and deep devotion to her family. Over the years, she made her home in Anoka, MN; Stacy, MN; Backus, MN; and Hudson, WI — building lasting memories and strong connections in each community.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Robert Lahti; her daughter, Carol Reckinger; her son-in-law, Paul Reckinger; and her brother-in-law, Bob Sjostrand.

Bobbi is survived by her children:

    •    Mike Lahti (Cathy)

    •    Richard Lahti (Kim)

    •    Ronalea Lemke (Mark)

She is also survived by her grandchildren:

Michael Reckinger, Lahti Reckinger, Dustin Reckinger, Megan Lahti, Joe Keating, Kalea Lemke, Elizabeth Lemke, Addison Lemke and one great grandchild, Marlin.

She leaves behind her loving siblings:

    •    Brother Richard Peart (Carol)

    •    Sister Patricia Sjostrand

Bobbi was the heart of her family — known for her gentle spirit, quiet strength, and unwavering love. She especially cherished bringing people together and was happiest when her home was filled with laughter and togetherness. She lovingly hosted family Christmas gatherings, summer pool parties, and the beloved opening weekend of fishing season at the lake — traditions that will live on in the hearts of all who shared them.

She also enjoyed playing cards, caring for her grandchildren, and visiting them as often as she could. Her joy was found in the simple moments — a warm kitchen, a full house, and the deep bonds of family.

Her legacy is one of warmth, compassion, and deep connection — the kind of love that holds families together through generations.

A private family gathering will be held to honor her life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a local hospice organization or a charity close to your heart in Bobbi’s memory.

She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.
