She always had a kind word, quick humor, and a delicious plate of cookies. I will miss my Grandmother terribly, but I know that we will have her looking over us always.

Dear "Joe and Barbara Huben" Cousins, (as we are known to each other by our parents' names), I am sorry to hear of Aunt Barbara's passing. I recall the many, many times we visited in Staten Island or in Piscataway with our parties, celebrations, or just a simple get-together and how "Mother Barbara" was so steady, warm, and friendly. She was someone you could be yourself in front of ... and had a good sense of humor when we were ourselves!!
Please know my thoughts and prayers are with...

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard,
but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
RIP Aunt Barbara
