Our thoughts and prayers are with you as just today I learned of your passing. A beautiful and professional TV Journalist we welcomed you into our home nightly to give us the news. You are missed and we will see you on the other side! God Bless

As a former colleague of Barbara's during her early new experiences at then KMOX-TV in St Louis, I am deeply saddened to learn of Barbara's passing. Even in the first days of her on-air education, it was clear she had news 'star' qualities. I feel as if I have lost a sister. Rest in peace, lovely lady. You did all who knew you proud.

Rest in Peace. Thank you for using your gift from God and sharing it with us all.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Barbara was a beautiful person with a smile that always warmed the heart and she will be miss!
