Lauarita Celaya Grider Barber

Dear Friends, I am so sorry to hear about your mother and so grateful I was able to spend some time with her when I visited Texas last year. Both your mother and father were such an important part of my life growing up and were like family to my mother after I moved to California. They will both always have a very special place in my heart. My deepest condolences, she will truly be missed by everyone who knew her. Love to all, Staci Nelson Dixon

Lauarita was a dear lady, an inspiration to so many and she will be missed.

Mrs. Barber was a lovely lady and wonderful neighbor. She graciously allowed us to hold our block parties at the foot of her driveway, and - until her health prevented it - she loved participating and meeting all the young families who have moved into the neighborhood. I will miss her smiling face and I offer a special prayer to the family as you mourn her loss but celebrate her life.

Dear Cousins, I am so sorry about the passing of your dear mother. She was such a joy to be around and such a positive person. I will always cherish her visits to my mom and the love she showed her. Love, Marilyn
