Dear Elizabeth, I met your Mom 8.5 years ago at C.Fred and really enjoyed getting to know her at lunchtime and at the many in service days. I was so sorry to hear about her passing when I returned to school this fall. Take comfort in knowing that she is at peace and in God's memory.( I only knew here for a short time, but found her to be a kind and pleasant person.)

Hello Ben & Elizabeth,

Just wanted to tell you how sad it was for me to hear about your mother's passing. If you remember, your mom worked with me as an aide in my classroom for many years at C. Fred. I have so many good memories of the times we shared together. I've heard from Penny Mead that the two of you have turned out very well. I'm sure that your memories of the special times you shared with your mother will always be there with you.

Liz, Ben and family,
We were so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I fondly remember the times we spent together during your St. Joseph School years, especially our "Mother's Club" meetings at your home. We'll always remember Barb's smiles, wit and laughter. God bless you during this difficult time.

Liz and family- I am so saddened to hear of the news. Barb was an amazing lady, and a saint for putting up with all of the crap we pulled in high school. She always had a kind word to say about somebody, and made us laugh all the time. Liz, you're my best friend and I am here for you for anything you need. Your mom was like my 2nd mom in high school and was simply amazing. I'll never forget her. May she rest in peace and watch over you and the rest of your family.

To all of Barb's Family: I was so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was such a wonderful woman...so kind and caring, and so much fun! I will never forget the time she gave a big, loud yawn in the middle of the Superintendant's speech on the first day of school in the High School Auditorium. I think she was really asleep! It brought down the house! I ate lunch with her for many years at C. Fred, and we would have such a good time. We solved the world's problems around that lunch table. Take comfort in the fact that she absolutely adored each and every one of you. She always spoke of you with such pride and love. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Ben, Elizabeth, Roz, Deanne, and Suzanne,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother was much more than a co-worker; she became a dear friend. We had a connection and that will be something I will always treasure; her friendship. Her love and the pride she had for her children was no secret. I know that even now she watches over her brood, just close your eyes and she'll be at your side. My memories of Barb are of a tender caring soul. She also had a wit so quick she get a belly laugh out of you in a heartbeat. I can hear her laugh and see the smile that reaches to her eyes. A special, generous spirit who'll live forever. Thank you so much for having me at the hospital; you'll never know how much it meant to me. And God Bless my Barbie-Doll. My friend, until we meet again---

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Ben, Elizabeth, Suzanne and Rosalyn, We are so sorry to hear about your Mum. She was a sweet, loving, caring woman. She loved you all, with all her heart, through good and bad times. Through all her struggles, she kept that "elfish" smile. Even though we didn't keep in contact as much as I would have liked, your mother always said we were forever friends. Goodbye and God Bless my dear, sweet "forever" friend.
