Smart, and took no BS from anyone. Had the luxury of going to school with Stephanie. And all the young girls are an extension of Their Mother, Hugs n kisses from the McKenna Family

Stephanie, Carol, Stacy, Starlet, Billie Jo , I am so sorry for your great loss, your mother was one of the strongest women I've known, you girls were her world. I pray for your getting through this time leaning on your mother's legacy. My deepest sympathy Terry Stiggle

To the Coleman Family. My family and I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to all of you. I had the pleasure of being a choir member, along with a younger sister, at AME Zion Baptist Church in Norwich (my family church). Ms. Coleman was a wonderful teacher and choir director and tolerated a lot of our shenanigans. She never yelled at us. She just simply gave us "The Look". And when she did, we knew to get ourselves together. She was kind and so musically inclined. She wore her joy in...

Barbara and I shared the same babysitter ( the late Mrs Josephine Loynes) for many years. Not only was she music inclined . May I note that from my observation she was great roll model in several ways. Her love for her children and and the entire New London county. We always encouraged each other and I have highly respect for her ambition and love for Jesus.

Barbara was my music teacher in Middle School.(1972-74) I loved her! She was kind to me, as I couldn't play an instrument, or sing. RIP Barbara, you will be missed!

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

I worked with Barbara at Kelly Jr. High in Norwich, CT. She was a remarkable teacher, and a lovely person. My sympathies to her family and friends.
