My prayers go out to Don and his family. I couldn't ask for better neighbor's then Don and Bard were. She was always so sweet to my son and I. And yes her bake goods were fantastic.

Don and Barb live across the street from me. They, like many on the street, really make it an awesome place to live. Barb always took the time to chat, would send homebaked goods over with Don doing the delivery. She was a very kind hearted neighbor, and will be truly missed.
Much Love goes out to Don and the family.
