Knowing Babs has always been a delight. When things were going well she was wonderful, when things were bad she was incredible. One cannot help but love, respect, and admire Babs. She will certainly be sadly missed, but, for me, the memory of Babs will always be joyful.

Steve, Kim, Steph, Meghan and Gayle,
I can not believe that I'm am writing about Babs' death. There's a huge hole in my being that I cannot describe. I missed the service yesterday as Ed's Father passed away a couple of days after Babs and I went to Spokane to be with them. I'm holding you all near to my heart and will continue to think of you all daily for a long time to come. Hugs to each and every one until I see you,

Many years ago, I met Babs, Steve and their family, when I was selling their home.
When I first met Babs, I liked her Instantly...but that’s how it was with anyone who was fortunate enough to be in her world. There wasn’t a person who could come into contact with her and not feel her Beautiful spirit.
I remember Long Humors conversations with Babs.
I always admired her Intelligence, Humor, Beauty, Her most amazing supportive talent as a proud “Mom-Grandma” and her Creativity in her Gorgeous “Art”.
She Created Beauty in Anything & Everywhere!
A Beautiful Classy lady with a sharp Intelligent Mind.
I appreciated her Sensitive and Loving soul.
Steve, you are amazing and have been the most Supportive, Caring, Loving Good Husband, Care Giver, Father, and Grand-Dad especially during challenging times.
My most sincere & deepest Sympathy to Steve, the Children and Family.
May you feel comforted in the many Beautiful Memories of Babs.

I was a terrified mother of 4 young sons when I was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer. I was scheduled to have a stem-cell transplant and my wonderful sister found Babs, who called, visited, and mentored me through the whole process. She gave me hope and inspiration and I celebrated my 11th "Birthday" since my stem cells were returned to me in May. Without Babs, I don't know if I would have had the confidence to follow through with this difficult treatment. She is truly an angel and I will treasure the many angels and cards she gave to me. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. This kind, talented woman will be missed dearly.

Steve, Kim, Brent, Stephanie, Chad, Megan, and Babs' little angels,
There are no words for the sorrows of the heart. I am blessed to have been "Babz" kissin' cuz and to have shared our Ruthie. I will never forget her radiant smile and beautiful dimples or the trouble we created when we were little girls.
She will live in my heart forever as will you...Always, All Ways,

Dear Kim, Steph, Megan: My deepest heartfelt sympathy. Your heart can never be prepared for the loss of a loved one -and certainly NEVER your mom. I know just how special your sweet Babs was - what a difference she made - and the footprint she's left in each of your hearts. May her love live on and give you comfort when you need it most!
Thinking of you! Love, Laurie

Bab's sister Gayle and I are friends from high school and I remember Babs as the perky little sister. I always knew she would become a talented, gentle and loved friend, mother and sister. I will go to the beach near my home today and think of the beauty Babs gave to our world.

Nearly 26 years ago all the Valentines gathered in Lake Tahoe -- at that time we laughed and saw all that joined us together as Valentine. I am deeply saddened to learn of Bab's death and her journey to fight her disease. I know she is now at peace with God! May God comfort each of you in your loss and may your memories and love of Bab's quiet your souls.

Babs and I met after our transplants and always considered ourselves the luckiest people in the world. We were two of the miracles that came out of the UofU Transplant Center. I am thankful she had these extra years after her diagnosis. What a wonderful contribution she has made to so many. I will miss Babs and her wonderful artwork.
