Louise, Georganna and Daniel...I am so sorry for the loss of your mother Barbara. I worked with her at Oceanfront Library for a little while and got along great with her. She was a real friend and I loved to hear stories she told me of parts of her life. She really loved her children ...talked about you guys all the time. Sherry Lutz
