BARBARA A. DILLER

It is impossible to believe that it has been 10 years since you left us, Barb. The memories of our friendship are as bright as your smile. Your incredible energy still fills the gap created at your parting. I am so grateful for the years we worked and played, laughed and cried together. Know that you are always in my heart and your family are always in my prayers.

I think of you every day, Barb, when I put on your birthstone ring. I am so grateful for your friendship. You showed me what a true friend should be--patient, kind, forgiving, trusting, and loyal. Some of the best times of my life were spent laughing with you. I miss you, dear friend, but I know you are wearing a bright crown in heaven. You earned it every day here on earth. Love always.

Barbara:
The person who made me feel at home when I moved from California to Florida.
The dynamo who put any slacker at work to shame.
The girl who loved M&M's.
The lady I laughed with every single day at work, no matter how crappy the day was!
The friend I called when my car battery was dead and she said "I'll be right there".
One of the biggest reasons I cried when I moved away from Orlando.
One of the greatest joys in my life when our friend Jessie got...

"Barb was a strong, independent, kind woman. Above all, I think it was her undying devotion to family and friends, which so eloquently defined her life. Through my communication with our mutual friend Jessica, I know that she fought her illness, as she lived her life, with grace and courage. She was a gentle person who will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all." Nona Grant Smith (Sugar Valley, GA)

Dearest Amy...
Sweetheart we are so saddened by your loss. I never had the honor of meeting your mom, but from all the stories I have heard you tell, I know she was the best. Amy, please know you are always welcome to come by or call whenever you need anything. We love you so much. Please take comfort in knowing that your Mom is the arms of God and at peace.

We are so sorry to hear about Barb. She was my best friend in school and we lived across the street from each other. My early days are all good memories of Barb and being on Maple Manor. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Brian,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of deep sorrow. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you and your family to help you though this difficult time. We love you all!

Barb honored us with her life and love. She inspired me with her commitment to her family and to life; she fought her illness with tremendous bravery. She deserves the peace and happiness that I know she has found.
