Not sure what to say?

I just found out today that my friend and fellow volunteer at God's Kitchen has died and I am just heartsick. Barb was such a strong and sweet lady who traveled a hard road but always had a positive outlook and never complained, not one word, to me. I so enjoyed working at God's Kitchen all these years with this wonderful lady and will miss her dry humor and her kind and gentle demeanor. Good bye, Barb. I will never forget you.

Never to forgotten R.I.P.

It was my pleasure to have met Barb at Gilda's. I found her to be delightful & kind. I shall miss her. I'm sure her loved one will have many happy memories to hopefully help ease the pain of her passing.

Barb made a difference. It was my honor to have know her, Tom and her friend Pat. RIP

Barb--it was such a joy to meet you at Gilda's Club. Your honesty, friendliness, and humor were so welcome in our groups. You faced your challenges with gracious courage and vivacious spunk. We loved your stories, and were so fortunate to call you "friend." You will be missed so very much, and your light will go on in each of us. ~Beth

Our sympathy to all of Barb's family and friends. We have known Barb for several years - thru Gilda's Club. We will greatly miss her positive outlook on life and sense of humor.

Barb, you fought so bravely and yet have been taken from us at so young an age. I will miss you!!!! Rest in Peace my friend!!

We will miss all the great times we had together. Love you, Denny and Sandy.
