Love & sympathy as you celebrate the life of Barb (who had the best middle name!!)
I remember her from when I was growing up, then serving her in the Hardware, & more recently taking birthday photos (even when she didn’t want them!!), & catching up with her in passing about the health of my own parents.
A real treasure who will live on through those who knew her.
