I've known Barbra and Doug for about 14,years. I first met Barbra standing on the hillside where we lived to watch fire works. Each July 4th after that we would meet or I would pick her up on a golf cart and we would go to our yearly date to watch fire works. Once she and Doug moved to winwood I was glad that I still got to see them and hug up on both of them. I have missed our yearly 4th of July dates. And will always have that memory. Miss and Love you Barb Lisa McCurdy
