I have memories of Barbara from Benito Avenue days of our childhood--always such a special lady. It was wonderful to reconnect with her at Mercy Center, and now I wish such joy and peace to her and comfort to her family and friends.

Barbara was such a support when we were first starting Mercy Center. Those who worked under her loved her dearly and I could not have done without her good common sense and practical know-how.

We, the Sisters of Mercy remember Barbara with fondness at Mercy Center. She was a wonderful co-worker and friend to many of us through the years both on our campus and at OLA. We will keep this gracious and talented woman in our prayer.
