I was shocked and very sad to hear of the passing of Barb. She was my supervisor at TSS at the Dovercourt office or âFâ as we called it then. She later became my supervisor at the Family Support Program. There are only a few supervisors (which I can count on one hand) while working for TSS that could be called special but she was one. I lost a parent during my time at Family Support and Barb could not have been more supportive, understanding and very kind. Her picture is just as I remember her
My prayers go out to all her family

I am so sorry to hear of Barbara's death. We were great friends all through high school, but lost touch in later years. I will always have beautiful memories of her. My thoughts are with her family at this sad time.

I knew Barb for many, many years at TSS. She was at times my supervisor and always my mentor. She actually changed the course of my life when she assigned me to a position where I dealt with community legal clinics. Within 6 months I was married to a wonderful and compassionate lawyer.
Barb was lovely woman, positive, encouraging, caring and capable.
To her family, I am so very sorry.

I was fortunate to have known Barb both professionally and personally through Metro Toronto. She was a special person with many wonderful qualities such as her calmness, truthfulness, logic and humour. My condolences to Jack, Andrea, Michael and family on losing a great wife, mother and friend.

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Barb. She was my supervisor at the Family Support Program. She was such a warm, supportive and well respected person who always spoke so fondly of her family. My deepest sympathy.

I had the pleasure of working with Barb many moons ago for the City of Toronto. Our kids were about the same age and we often shared stories of each other's everyday parent delights. Years later, as fate would have it, I had the pleasure of working with her son. It is with great sadness that I read the news today of Barb's passing. My deepest sympathies go to the entire family. She will be forever remembered.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Barb through curling at Thornhill. She was such a beautiful person and I always enjoyed curling and talking with her. Her favourite topics with her grandchildren and her Whinnie.
I will miss her very much.
My thoughts are prayers go out to all her family.
