It was with heavy heart I heard of Barbara's passing last week. Such a strong woman who fought her battle with so much perseverance, courage, and positivity. When she left us in Enrollment Services a while ago, her absence was missed terribly by all of her coworkers. Her passing, now, leaves many more with an even larger empty space, and always with the question, "Why?" My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. With deepest sympathy.
