BARBARA A. SCHWIND

Barb was not only a good friend of mine, she was like family! When I met her, I realized I was already friends with her kids. I just knew that she was going to be wonderful like them. Through the years working at Holmes, we became really close. Barb even moved by me, with my recommendation!!! We shared many special memories (always laughter filled.) My entire family loved Barb and her great personality! My husband thought the world of her! I will always remember the special friend I had...

I am so sorry about the loss of your mother, Barb. Barb was always a pleasure to work with and a fun person to just have around you. She was always happy with a smile on her face.

And to all of Barb's children, you were truly the best and most important part of her life. She always spoke about you to all of us and she shared in your joys and sorrows. Having Brandon in her life was also such a gift to her. She was always willing she share a cute story about him and the pride...

Dear Julie and family~
I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
With my sympathy,
Jackie Stein-Satzke

Barb was the best cousin you could ever have!From as far back as I can remember the world began to sparkle when we, as little kids,heard Barbara was comming to Michigan.For Barbara had a special place in my father's heart-she was his girl. You see he was her "God Father" and they honored that relationship always.
Many times at the cottage in the U.P. or Wisconson she would have her Uncle Dick sing"Our Father". The whole cottage would shake! What great times!
We took the train to...

Knowing Barb was a privilege. She was a wonderful, happy person to share so much with. She will be missed and shall be with me forever.
I share in your grief, Schwind/Baker family. Be comforted by memories of Barb and her beautiful being.

My deepest sympathy to you all for the loss of your mother. Barb and I were friends a while ago. She loved you all so very much and I am glad she was able to see grandchildren. I know her special love for Dusty. Please take good care of Dusty and see that he gets a very good home.

Barbie Doll Baker, how I will miss calling you that, how I will miss you at the Baker functions. When we met 10 years ago I believe the similarities in our lives (single moms, trying to support our children and somehow have a life of our own!) helped us to form a bond that will never be broken.
I am sure you were smiling down at your family and how proud you must’ve been for they paid you the extreme compliment just by the words they spoke and their brave actions. You did good Barbie,...

Barb was one amazing lady! She always had a smile on her face and I feel it a privilege to have worked with her! Her memories will live on! You, her family, was the essence of her life (Dusty as well)! I wish you my utmost condolences.

I worked with Barb for a few years and her kind smile was what I will remember and our wonderful conversations. My sympathy goes out to the whole family. Another angel is up in heaven. Barb, rest in peace.
