Due to the crazy year 2020 and all its restrictions, I would not have been able to travel to Washington for our annual visit. One of the highlights would have been to visit with Barbara. She was such a special spirit...always learning, trying something new and up for a good time. I truly miss her and it saddens me that I will be unable to see her again. However, I will forever carry warm memories of Barbara.

Met Barbara in the early 1990s when we worked together in Los Angeles. We instantly hit it off because we were of a similar age, had grandchildren of a similar age and we were both crazy. When Barbara moved to Carnation, WA, we remained in touch tracking our paths as grandmothers and friends. When she moved to Gig Harbor, I would visit her at her lovely home when I visited my daughter who lives in Bonney Lake. We would spend an afternoon reminiscing and catching up with each other's life. She was such a joyful and positive person...one who couldn't sit still for too long. We always walked through her beautiful garden each year to see the changes...new paths, plants and listen to her dreams. Visiting with Barbara each year was such a treat. My condolences to her family. I know she loved all of you very much. May she rest in peace.

I was Barbara's dental hygienist and friend. When she missed a recent dental appointment, I tried to get in touch with her, but had a bad feeling so I checked the obits.
We attended garden shows together and she was always a delight to spend time with. I loved to visit her home garden and she gave me several plants that are in my yard now and I will always treasure the memories of our times together. Condolences to Barbara's family and friends.
