Barbara was special to me and will be missed but always remembered. She loved each of you dearly and was very proud of you. I pray that my friend will rest in peace and that each of you will find peace in your cherished memories of your Mom. Remember our days at the 'Rog'! Hugs to all.

With deepest sympathy to all. I was a delivery boy for my father,s store on dunnell Ave. Barbara & George were two of a number of people I admired. In 1946 we revered our returning war heroes,George Billings, Ted Lennon,my brother Joseph Skiera, John Poitras,John Leclair,To name a few,it was a great neighborhood, you had to be there. Please excuse my rambling,but @ 75 I still look back and remember what a great place,what wonderful people. Barbara could tell you and perhaps she did,she was a warm and compassionate woman. Sincerly,Raymond E. Skiera

Simply saying I am sorry for your loss, is not a deep enough sentiment. Barbara was a special woman, Grandma, mother.
