Barb was the consummate professional as our registrar at LT.
She served our students and staff so well by ensuring the accuracy and content of our transcripts! She did great detective work ! She loved her family so much! I enjoyed our energizing conversations. She was a first class person!

Dear Tracy, Tricia, Leigh and family ~
So very sorry to read of Barb's passing. It's been years, but I still remember those days on Spring Ave. and at Ogden school. Your Mom was always there waiting for you girls to get home. And the boys could be such a problem on that walk, at times!
I remember my delight when I found out your Mom was a twin - just like me! And then, after I started to date Dave (JD) Miller - and subsequently marry him - to find out that your uncle John and Dave worked together at EMD...it truly is a small world.
We are all diminished by this loss. I'll always remember what a loving, productive, no-nonsense person she was. She was a role model for me - and a friend to me - after my separation and divorce.
You all are in our thoughts and prayers.
With Sympathy,

Aunt Kitty

My heart goes out to all of you on your loss and heaven's gain. I always remember Barb as a person with a heart of gold and was always there for anyone who needed her.
