Not sure what to say?

Barbara was a friend of my late parents, Jean and Pop Johnson. Barbara was in my parents’ wedding party and godmother to my sister Kathy. Kathy is in poor health and unable to attend Barbara’s funeral. We have wonderful memories of Barbara. May all the wonderful memories of Barbara help you in the days ahead.

I worked with Barbara at the Reference Desk at the North Providence Library. She taught me much about working in a library that I did not learn in library school. I liked to tell her about the mystery books I was reading. Condolences to her family.


I worked with Barbara at the North Providence Library for many years and truly cherished that time. I loved listening to her stories and talking books with her. She taught me so much about cooking and gardening and always gave the best advice. Barbara was an amazing person, and she will be missed by many. My deepest condolences to her family.

Our deepest sympathies to Barbara's beloved Family. Barbara was a dear friend, kind, generous, and always the listener, who was full of much wisdom. She is and will always be missed by many.
