I met Barbara in Hawaii in the early 1980s. As her obituary clearly reveals, she was a dynamo and opened her arms to life. She has been a wonderful friend these many years. My love goes out to Wendyn. Barbara will be missed by so many!

My sincere condolences Wendy and to all family members. I will always remember Dr. Nylund for her brilliance, endless generosity and loving heart! My fondest memory is of our time together in Croatia. Rest in peace dear Dr. Nylund
