Mrs Barb was always there for me, and never treated me any less than her own family. If it weren't for all of her help, I wouldn't have had half of the opportunities to better myself. Whether it be a crazy schedule at a new job, night school, or even going away for 7 months for training through the Navy. Whatever it may be, she was always there for me- and I'm forever grateful. As with my own mother, I find peace in the fact that she left this world knowing how much I appreciated her and everything she's done. Ryder was so very fortunate to have a Mom-Mom that loved him as much as she did.. he was her world, and they had a very special bond with one another. "energy may neither be created nor destroyed" and The love and energy that she put into Ryder will never die. It has left an ever lasting imprint in his heart and will live on through him for eternity. You will be greatly missed Mrs Barb. We love you and we miss you deeply!
