Dear Kathie, Robin & Janie,
I just recently heard that Aunt Barbara passed last June. My heart goes out to each of you on the loss of your wonderful Mom. Although we didn't spend a lot of time together over the years, I enjoyed visiting with her at different family functions. She was always "dressed to the nines" but more importantly always wore a beautiful smile whenever I saw her. She was a class act and will be missed. Treasure all of your good memories of her.
With deepest sympathy, sending hugs to all,
Love,
Susie

Robin,
So sorry for your loss. I know how much Barb will be missed. I remember Barb talking about your fun trips to Kelly's on Revere Beach. We all had such a great time at her house having dinner from the Green Tomato. She was so happy that night. I'm glad we all have the memory of that night.
Her suffering is over now and she's with Roy again.
Always here for you,
Love
Judy

Sis,
So sorry for you loss. For the part 35 years plus you have taken such good care of your mom. Taking her out every Saturday and showing her a good time.
Have comfort knowing she always knew she could count on you to be there for her.
She is no longer suffering and in pain.
Wish I could be there for you, but you know I am in spirit.
Love you Sis
