I often think of the long conversations we use to have on the staircase. She was an inspirational individual that inspired me to continue my work today caring for Seniors. I miss her dearly. Lovingly a former caregiver, Jackie

Dear Princess Barbara & Sir Richard,
Ben and I were so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing.
You are in our thoughts and prayers, as we know you will always miss your Mom. They are very special and we have some great memories as kids and things we did with Mom. She looks just a little like you Barbara...or rather you look just a 'little' like her picture.
Love, Ben & Mary Copeland, Hampton, VA
