Grace and Peace to you and your family! Barb was in our class of 1964 at PHS. I remeber with fondness our bus rides to and from school! I experienced her as kind and generous person of faith in God! May God anchor you through the days now and ahead!

So sorry for your loss, Cecil. I was a classmate of Barb, and have fond memories of her. As I join the walk for Alzheimers this weekend, I will also walk in her memory.
