Not sure what to say?

I absolutely love Barbara. She served in Deseret Industries quilt department, humanitarian area, of which I called her to. She was a master organizer. I often went to her for advice. When Lee and I first moved to Boise, she was the first person to come to our home on Chinden to welcome us! I then had the privilege of working with her in the Boise Temple. She was always so kind. Love to all of her wonderful family. Elaine Evans

Barbara was the most loving Relief Society President. I always enjoyed her comments and love for all. She was a great lady.

My favorite memory of Barbara and David is of a Church dance in São Paulo, Brazil, when those two went out on the floor and "cut a rug", dancing the swing and twirling like two teenagers. I used to think I was a fancy jitterbug artist, but they topped anything I could do at that age. They were terrific and energetic. We will forever cherish their memory and, yes, we took that tour through her back yard in Eagle. True sister and brother in the Gospel. -David and Teresa Eastman.

Joy- I love you, my dear friend. And to the rest of your incredible siblings- your family is so near and dear to the Hill family. We love you and we love your mother. Grateful for her dear sweet reunion with your incredible father. I’m sure they will be watching over all of you. Hugs hugs and more hugs!!

Oh Joy, and Jarvis Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Your mom was almost like a second mom to me when we were growing up. She was a wonderful woman. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I know how tough it is to lose both parents, and truly know what you are going through. I am sorry that you are going through the heartache of losing your mom. I´m sure she and your dad had a wonderful reunion, and are so happy to be together again.

Beautiful woman and wonderful life. Prayers.

I was just thinking of her last week wondering how she was doing? David and Barbara were in my ward when I was growing up. They were friends with my parents. I babysit 6 of those rambunctious kids many times. Then I married their nephew and they became my aunt and uncle. I loved them. They were such great people!! I haven't kept much contact with them due to a divorce. They will always have a special place in my heart. Dave and his awesome deep voice and Barbara and her beautiful smile and so...
