Not sure what to say?

I'll never forget meeting Barbara at the library while we were doing family research in 1994. I knew she was my second cousin and had talked to her on the phone but had never met her face to face until then! We always kept in touch after that, sharing our genealogy discoveries and information. I had just visited her a few weeks ago. My heart aches that she is gone even though I know it was her time. I will miss her always.

I learned allot from this great woman. She came into my life working at Walmart (in the rural king building now). She taught me how to be a wife, mother, a friend and maaaany years later a grandmother. And the only person that could work with Mr. Robinson. You'll be missed.
