One of the kindest persons and one of the very best office administrators I have had the pleasure of working with. I will remember all of the good times Barb.

Please except my deepest condolences Steven and Barbara and all of Barbara's family members.
Barbara was my friend and neighbor for 17 years. I will miss our outings, talks over the fence but mostly the friendship we shared. We will miss her at our family gatherings. She will always have a special place in my heart.
God bless you Barbara, rest in peace. I will miss you very much.
Lots of Love.
Karen

So sad to hear this. Barb was much like a grandma to me and I will miss her. A neighbor everyone wants, always a treat to be around and a fantastic cook. I want to thank you for everything you have done for our family and may you rest in peace.

My condolences to the family and love ones.

Warmest,
