Not sure what to say?

My cousin- my peaceful open hearted lover of life. You are missed and the memories will be with us forever. Until we meet again

Barb was a loving cousin who welcomed her family and friends into her beautiful beach home- I am so fortunate to have spent time with her with my two boys, who were boys at the time!!! I miss her more than I can express.

Barbara was my mother's cousin and we shared many stories of their childhood together. My two sons and I spent a week with her many years ago and had a wonderful time getting to know each other, walking on the beach behind her cottage, and eating fantastic meals. I often sent her cards and she called me on my birthday. I will miss her.

I remember Mrs. Vanduyne from Bellamy she was an awesome lady they made reading fun. My condolences to her family.

Barbara was a member of our Unitarian Universalist congregation here in Wilmington. We didn’t know her well, but she was a valued and well-respected part of our community. Our deep condolences and prayers are with her family.
