Barbara was one of the most caring, and gracious people I have had the fortunate to meet. Our friendship went back to the early days of Dr. Omar C. Hurlburt II when she became his office manager and my family became his patients. It has continued thru these many years and I have so enjoyed our phone chats and our promises to each other to meet for lunch soon. I just learned of her passing and am heart broken. She was a true and loved friend.
