Cliff and family,
I'm so sorry to hear of Barb's passing. I enjoyed her visits to the IAT office and her support of our students. Keep the memories of her beautiful smile and the sparkle she put in your eyes.

Barb was an awesome person ! She took a chance and hired me to be her IT person at MDE in 1995. I owe her a lot of gratitude for helping my career. Barb was a very smart "common sense" person that would always listen. My condolences to the family. RIP

Barbara was an excellent advocate for CTE, an outstanding leader, and a gifted presenter. She was missed when she left the State Department and even more missed now. RIP
