Bosie was born November 24, 1935 in St. George, South Carolina, daughter of the late Harold Westbury and the late Willie Cooper Sojourner. She graduated from St. George High School where she was the class president, received her bachelor's degree from the University of South Carolina and belonged to Kappa Delta Sorority. Bosie helped start the first PTA program at Wando High School, worked at Christ Church Tea Room, served communion at Sandpiper Convalescent Center, volunteered at Roper Hospital and served on the Altar Guild at St. Andrew's Church. She enjoyed playing bridge at the senior center, reading, water aerobics, and was a charter member of the Mount Pleasant Cotillion. Her claim to fame was the Pitt Street Pharmacy's sandwich named in her honor, "The Bosie Special." One of her greatest joys was attending her grandchildren's sports activities. Her family and grandchildren were the most important things in her life.
