I could go on forever about Barbara Haydon; she was one not to be missed on this earth. I worked with her at Ross General Hospital and although she was a superb professional and very focused and extremely smart, she was a lot of fun. SO much fun. I enjoyed every moment of our time together. She was amazing....so capable of juggling so many people and problems at once and with such precision. I hope her family knew this side of her. Again, she was one in a million. I am so sorry for her passing and the world is less without her. I can hear her now, with her quick little laugh, as I make that comment but "Boo Boo", it is true, you are a rare person and you will be missed by all. I am so happy I was able to spend so much time with you.

With love, respect and great admiration and many cherished memories, M. Martori
