Although it has been several years since we moved away from the Valley of the Sun, we often thought of Barbara and Jerry and do so at this time. We especially enjoyed visits to their home and Peaches and Maggie, the wonder dogs. We shared an interest in antiques. Our prayers go out to her family at this time.

Barbara was a precious cousin and will always miss sharing e-mails the last few years. I have fond memories of the last time I saw Barbara, in my home, in Hurst, TX.

I miss my cousin, Barbara, and my friend. We were very close in age and had
a lot in common. I'll especially miss her famous lemon curd that she would bring
to me when we would meet for lunches. I enjoyed those visits so much. Barbara
was very smart and I'll miss the good advice that she always gave to me. My
thoughts and prayers will always be with Jerry and Anne. Love, Sarah & Allen Clift
