Aunt Barbara means the world to me. She was a second mother to me and I was so lucky to have her in my life. She taught me about family and loved me unconditionally. I have so many great memories about our times together and it is hard to believe that it has come to an end. Aunt Barbara is a hero to many but especially to me. She represents all that is good and special and I will do my best to keep that spirit alive. I will tell my kids the stories that she has told me and teach them the...

I will always remember her warmth and kindness towards me, and her beautiful, kind voice. Even at very chaotic, noisy family functions she always took a few minutes to talk with me and was really interested in what I had to say. She brought fun to the Rufo family Christmas dinner a few years ago when we all got gifts from QVC.

If there is a heaven she is there now and it's a lot like the Amalfi Coast of Italy, where Barbara is enjoying a nice glass of wine by the sea.

Where do I begin. Aunt Barbara, you are a very special person. You were there for every occassion and just because. You were there to help me get on my feet just out of college. We share so many memories of family vacations, parties, dinners and many more. You were a loving friend, mother, aunt and wife to all of us. I know you are there watching over us, as you always did. You are always going to be with me no matter what and we will always watch out for Uncle Rocco. I love you always.

There are so many wonderful things that I can say about Aunt Barbara, I don't know where to begin. My memories of Barbara and Rocco are too numerous to mention, but just know that they were all GREAT!!! I remember every family vacation, Italy, Sunday dinner, Holiday's, weddings, phone calls, and "just because's", because there were so wonderful. I remember all of these events so vividly that I find it hard to believe that they are memories. I thank god I have so many fantastic pictures that...

Aunt Barbara,
I will always remeber the good times we shared as I was growing up. All the fond memories of our family picnics and the times we shared each week with Aunt Angie and Aunt Roe . You where a strong and kind hearted person who will be missed by many people and myself .
You never gave up hope . And touched the hearts of many people . We all love you and will miss you always .

I am so sorry about Barbara. THE WORLD HAS LOST A WARM AND WONDERFUL PERSON. I worked with Barbars at the phone company but haven't seen her in some time. My thoughts and prayers are with the family

I am so sorry for the loss of Barbara. I remember Barbara very fondly and am so sad at her death. Rocco, I am thinking of you.
