Barbara Ann Giblin

Michelle and Amy, Your parents Christmas card was returned to us today and I tried to find correct address on the net. That´s when I sadly discovered that both your parents had passed. Your mom was my first friend I met when we moved to Colorado Springs. We remained friends for many years, but lost touch in the past 2 years. You have our deepest heartfelt sympathy and prayers. Your parents were dear friends of ours for many years.

We were friends with Barb and Jim for many years. Barb was a true friend, smart, good sense of humor, with a wonderful sense of style. Many wonderful times together were spent eating pizza and playing cards. We enjoyed outdoor concerts with both Jim and Barb, too. After moving from CO. several years ago, we tried to stay in touch. However, life got in the way, but, our memories are there forever. Blessings to the family and remember Bud and I cared deeply for your mom. Bud and Cheryl

Jim, Michelle and Amy - I am sending my deepest sympathies and prayer to you in the loss of Barb. I first met Barb as my neighbor around 20 years ago. Her and Jim became a part of my life and the life of my kids and grandsons. Barb was always interested in what was happening in our lives and how she could help. Our friendship evolved over time and became phone calls to keep in touch. I am already missing Barb and our phone calls. You are all in my prayers in this difficult time.

So sorry Jim, about the passing of your wife, Barb. We were both CPA's with May birthdays with spouses who were both teachers with September birthdays. It was fun sharing a theater table with you and Barb up in Arvada several times. I will keep you in my prayers, Jimmy G.

Jim and daughters, I am so sorry for your loss of Barb. Such a wonderful kind hearted woman and friend. I remember times at Village 7 swim club and Mt. Calvery Lutheran church with Barb and the girls. I hope to be able to come to her funeral.

Michelle & Amy, You may not remember me but I taught 5th grade at Penrose. I so remember your mom´s kindness, involvement, and support in your Years at school. I pray for your strength and comfort for your whole family. Rhonda Bryant

Michelle and Amy, my deepest sympathy with the loss of your mom. She was one if the first ones I met when I walked into Divine Redeemer school my first day to teach in October of 1988. She became a friend then and we shared several wonderful years teaching together. I joined the evening bridge club a few years later and we spent so many happy, fun times together. I will always remember her fondly. God bless you and your dad. I know the heartache of dementia personally. Stay strong . He will...
