To Joseph Allgeier and family. We only knew Barbara briefly. It was long enough to know that she was a very special lady. She didnt talk about her MS much but about her family and especially about her grandson Joey. Her eyes would light up and she would tell stories and we would laugh. I enjoyed her company so much. She will be truly missed. God Bless the Allgeier family. - Mildred Davies

I am sorry to hear your loss. I knew Barbara from Joey. I used to come over their in highschool and stay the nights. Joey cared so much for his Grandmother. The past 2 or 3 years he would always tell me how much he wanted to see his grandma but someone was keeping him from coming. He always talked about her. He would tell me the fun times they both used to have. Swimming and going on vacations. I know she loved him just as much. Joey would always help her do things. Again, i am so sorry for your loss. I am praying for you. I am sure that Barbara and her son Joseph are in Heaven together.

Barbara, You were such a great Grandmother. I will always remember the fun times we had. You and me were so close to each other. I loved you so much. I will always remember going out on Saturday nights to get Ice Cream. I wish I could have came over more to see you but I wasn't allowed to. I know you're in Heaven now. I hope you're swimming or running right now as I'm typing this. I hope you and my dad are finally together. You were such a wonderful person. You always put other people first before yourself. I can't express how much I loved you. May you rest in peace.
