Much too late but no less sincere! While we met this beautiful lady quite late in life, her charm filled our lives and her kindness went beyond words.
Her Canadian "family" sends deepest sympathy to Barb, her sisters and families. We feel blessed to have been the beneficiaries of Ibby's gracious hospitality and beautiful smile.

Ibby was so special to so many of us. Thank you, Ibby, for gracing this world with your presence for so long as you did. Every time we were with you, you triggered so many wonderful memories of when all our parents were still alive. The gang is finally all together agains now. "Light a fire in the fireplace...."
