I will truly miss Barbara.She was such a ray of sunshine. I can honestly say I have never seen her as happy as she has been for the last couple of years. Coley and Barbara were like teenagers and I loved being with the two.
My prayers and thoughts go out to the family and to CB.

May God's grace and the many wonderful memories you have of your Mother bring you peace.

Barbara was such a gift to me. She had such a loving caring spirit. Years ago when I lost my son, she would call me at the end of the our real estate day just to lift me up. We worked at different realty companies. One night she came by my house and bought me a prayer book. I still carry that book even though over the years I have gotten others. I continue to believe the book she gave me holds the key to many of life's ups and downs. That prayer book was also very special to me because as busy as I am sure she was, she took the time to touch my life with her love by bringing it to me.
I can not imagine your grief. You will remain in my thoughts and prayers. As special as I thought she was I know the family had to have treasured her.
May God's love carry you through the difficult days ahead. She will forever live in our hearts.

Barbara was a kind, generous soul. She was a friend and took the time to remind me of our friendship frequently. She was always positive, encouraging and cheerful, even in times of great personal stress. A wonderful Christian lady, beautiful and caring in every way. I was glad to know her and am glad she called me friend.

After I heard of Barbara's death, I went back and re-read the last scripture your mother called and gave me. She was such a source of encouragement and love to me over the past 15 years. I will miss her greatly.
