Barbara, Thank you for the amazing example you were to all of us about how to live life to its fullest. The joy and caring you expressed to your family and friends will be remembered by so many of us. This world is certainly a better place for having you in it.

Dear Barbara was a true friend to me. Such a kind and loving individual will always be remembered. I send my sincere sympathy to her family. We had so much fun cheerleading, youth fellowship on Sunday evenings and our Secret Closet Club when we were kids. Thank you Barbara for your influence in making me a better person. Love, Janie

Dear John & Family & Elizabeth,

We will always remember your Mom and how kind she was to us when we were at Paxton Presbyterian Church and after we left. She was a beautiful person inside and outside. We have very fond memories of your Dad, too.

We hope and pray that your Christian faith and the love of family and friends and all the good memories are very comforting to you.

Blessings, Prayers & Love,
Fredrika (Freddy) & Kent Groff (Denver, CO)

I got to know Barbara at CC of Harrisburg swim meets, when she brought her lovely granddaughter, Sophie and more recently, Jahn. Barbara was a wonderful lady, full of love and willing to share it all. I am sorry for your family's loss.

Dear John,

My sincere condolences at the loss of your lovely mother. Your mother impacted my life more than I would have thought for the short time she was a part of my life.

I reflected on her example many times when my son brought home is first high school girlfriend who is now my daughter-in-law. Your entire family holds a special place in my heart to this day. ...

To the Arnold Family, our sincerest condolences to one of our sweetest customers from your friends at Fedex in Middletown.

Dear John,
Your Mom had a profound influence on my life for the short time she was a part of my life. I learned alot from her about grace, composure and how to treat others. It especially came in handy when my son had his first girlfriend in high school, who is now my daughter-in-law. I reflected on the way your Mom treated me and that was how I tried to treat Chrystal. I will always have the fondest memories of your family, and was blessed to have been touched by them. It was just...

Arnold Family,
I had the great pleasure of meeting Barbara when I first started my daycare center and she was my landlord. I remember the first day I met her, she made me feel like an old friend. She was such a beautiful person to talk with and I knew that I was blessed to have met her!
So very sorry for your loss.
