BARBARA ACKERMANN

Joan - I just looked your mother up on an impulse - I am sorry to hear of her passing and glad that I knew her the bit I did. Not many kids can say they grew up across the street from her! I have never forgotten her friendship with our family. and how graciously I was received into your home.

Joan, My deepest condolences to you and your family at your loss . Your mother was a truly incredible woman. She was always very kind to me whenever we played together as children in that great house on Gibson Street.

Dear Joan—I did not meet your mother but feel I learned a lot about her from talking with you over the years. Having read her amazing biography I now know a bit more about how you became who you are, given the fantastic model that she provided. I hope you are consoled by the loving care and devotion you offered her in these last years, as well as by the fact that you have fulfilled in your own way the full life that she modeled.

Sorry for your loss.

Joan, I was so sorry to read about your Moms passing. You spoke of her often and I feel I knew her through your eyes. The apple does not fall far from the tree. You and your Mom are truly incredible people, with hearts of gold. Your moms for compassion will continue to shine through you.

Joan,
My condolences to you and your family on the passing of Barbara.We met at Kimball Farm Nursing when my mother Ronnie was a resident also.On our daily visits we had many interesting conversations and also a few laughs with our moms.Im sure the residents will miss knowing that you were there for them also.

Dear, Ackermann Family, I am sorry for you loss. I have great memories of when your mother served on the Cambridge City Council with my father. Back then they may have had different philosophies, but respected one another and got along. Today's politicians could learn a great deal from your mother's book.

My Condolences To The Family;
I'm so sorry for your great loss. May the God of all comfort be with you all during this difficult time.

I am so sorry to heard of Barbara's passing. Our family was involved in her 1960's campaigns in Cambridge. She was a strong woman, a role model and example for young women and men alike.
