Barbara was such a radiant presence with a huge heart, a friendly demeanor, a contagious laugh, and a joy for life. Although I didn't know Barbara well, she had a knack for making me feel like an old friend every time I saw her. I will miss her warmth and honesty and will keep Barbara and her friends and family in my heart and prayers for many, many days to come.

Barbara and I were best friends in junior high and high school. I was a bridesmaid in her wedding to Marvin. We lost touch through the years but I have always thought about her and what fun we had. Rest in peace my friend.
