Not sure what to say?

I miss Barb so much. I think she is the only true friend I had as an adult. When you´re a child you have best friends you confide in and trust but as you get older I think that becomes more difficult. I loved her. She adored Casey. I remember when he wasn´t interested in reading and I suggested the Harry Potter series. He seemed to enjoy them so much. She had the best heart and a kind and generous spirit. She never felt like she was good enough but she was the best.

Barb,
I am sitting here almost ten years later and your image of poped into my mind. I miss you. Little things I see in life remind me of you. Casey has become a wonderful husband and father. You raised him good. God bless you.

My deepest sympathy to Barbs family. I worked with Barb at Com Ed. She was always fun to work with. I really enjoyed those times with barb and have many fond memories.

Mr & Mrs Behnke, and family, I am so sad to hear of the passing of Barb, I and my family have so many memories of her and your family, we were the swimmers right along with all of you, my deepest sympathies, she was always so happy, and the protector of all her brothers and sisters while we were growing up, she will be missed...

I worked with Barb at Burrows, now Owens & Minor for 11 yrs. We had so many laughs, as long as we didn't bother her too early in the morning! But of course, that was my favorite time to bother her. Barb was a wonderful mother, daughter, and friend. She could never stop talking about Casey and how proud she was of him. After talking with him at the wake, I could see that she did a wonderful job at raising him.
What a gentleman. I will miss her dearly as will her family and many...

Our deepest sympathies go out to the whole Behnke family. I have known the Behnke family since I was in First Communion class with Jill and want to let you know that you will all be in our thoughts and prayers. Barb will be missed.

Barb will be missed by many. I have been speaking to Barb for many years as my Burrows customer service rep. She was great at her job and fun to talk to. She sometimes shared with me storys about her son who she was very proud and protective of. I will miss talking and laughing with her. My deepest sympathy goes out to her entire family especially her son.

My deepest sympathy to the whole Behnke Family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I have very fond memories of Barb and the rest of the family and I think of you all often.

I am Barb & Casey's neighbor, Barb. My grandson Michael & Casey have known each other since they were around 6. I will miss Barb & her many visits to our house. Barb & I would sit outside & enjoy many summer evenings together. She always had great stories & never seemed to worry about problems, unlike me. Casey, please stay in touch & come by anytime.
