Barbara Jean Drake

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

It was with a great sense of loss when I learned of Barbara's passing. No words can adequately express the sorrow I feel at this time. She was truly a special person and a wonderful friend. I will forever cherish the friendship we shared, and the wonderful times we spent together. I will miss Barbara; she touched my life in so many ways. Our lives have been blessed by her love. We pray God gives each family member the strength you need to endure the days ahead.

With love and...

I worked with Barb when she first came to Marysville Middle School. We shared a common planning period and I got to know her pretty well. She was an absolutely dedicated teacher and an inspirational person to all who knew her. Her work will live on in the many students and staff whose lives she touched. I will forever remember her warm smile and her gentle laughter. She will be missed.

To Leroy and the Drake family - So sorry to read of the death of your wife and mother. While I didn't know Barbara, Leroy was a valued colleague in the Edmonds School District years ago and we followed the sports activities of you fellows as your proud dad would share about your achievements. Blessings to you all.......Louise Baker
