Not sure what to say?

Memories of growing up with my big sister, Barbie...

Barbie was always good to me growing up. She was patient and understanding and made me laugh a lot.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Barbie. With much love, Uncle Vince, Aunt Doll(Carol) and your cousins; Jimmy, Michelle and Shane

In memory of my sister, Barbie. With love, Carol

Psalm 23

your rod and your staff,...

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

Our family was so fond of her. She was a very nice person. Although we have lost touch over the years. I have many wonderful memories of her and your family in Hampton. God Bless.

Barbara Ferris (LaChance) a 1957 Spaulding High classmate. A lovely quiet gal who had only friends. Slowly our ranks are thinning and only our memories are left. Barb is now but a pleasant one. To her family I offer my deepest concern and prayer.
