Not sure what to say?

i’m not sure much will cover the shock when i got the call. i’m going to miss you so much but i know you’re at peace. please continue watching over me as you did down here.

It was truly a blessing to have known Barb as her neighbor and to share warm days talking about flowers and plants. She was a beautiful soul who touched many lives. May God grant her eternal peace and surround your family with comfort and strength during this time. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. So sorry for your loss.

“Thank you for everything, whenever we met you made me feel welcome, you always worried that we were fine when we got together as a family with John, my children and me. Thank you Barb and please tell my husband that I love him and miss him because I imagine that they are together and with Uncle Joe. A hug from here to the sky." Atte/ Lily

Barbara was a very kind and caring person. A true and loyal friend! Our phone conversations were always enjoyable and would last for an hour. It was always a pleasure seeing her whenever she came to Georgia. She wasn't just my friend she was definitely more like family! My heartfelt condolences to the family! Sending you all prayers and love as you go through this very difficult time. God Bless!

I played bingo with Barb for many years before moving to Nebraska.
We sat side by side and complained about not winning. She will be missed by many.
The bingo hall needs to keep an empty chair for her and Jane they were there every Sunday. Keep an eye on mom Barb.

Sorry for your loss. Prayers for peace as you grieve.

My heart is broken. I will miss seeing Barb each Sunday. My prayers are with all of the family, particularly Jane. Sending love and hugs!

My sympathy to all who knew and loved Barb. I met her 50 years ago and watched the journey she was on to make sure every loved one was taken care of. Where she got the time to give to all is a mystery but she did it with love and grace. I will miss her, also! I am in shock over her loss
