She may be gone from us physically but hold on to your memories of her. May those memories bring you peace in knowing that she's definitely in a better place. Thanks again to each of her friends!

To the Family of "BJ", she was affectionately known as "CUZ" to me, because I was always in training to be refined like she was. I will dearly miss this great lady of peace and this icon of timeless beauty who possessed and endearing spirit like no other. I hope your memories of this lovely lady bring peace and comfort to the family.

To Myrna and the entire Muldrow Family,
It was with a great sense of loss when I heard of Barbara's death. I wanted to let you know that my heart is truly saddened.
Barbara was more than just a wonderful person, she was always so kind and considerate to me that I always welcomed seeing her at every opportunity. She always had kind words to say and her smile brightened up the workplace.
Her passing will not only leave a void, but in the hearts of all those who knew her. Barbara will always remain in my heart. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
With deepest sympathy,

To The Muldrow Family, Rebecca, and Team 301.
I wasn't able to attend B.J.'s Homegoing Celebration because of the inclement weather. But the family and my co-workers were and forever will be in my heart and prayers. B..J. had told me a long time ago, when we would get on the subject of funerals. She told me that she knew that I would be there, if no was else were there. She knew that I was a strong supporter of my friends and co-workers. It really hurt my heart, to not have been in attendance. I asked myself yesterday, as I pondered whether to try to make it down the icy steps and clean all the ice off my car to travel down the road where the tree limbs were falling. I asked myself, what would B.J.do? She would say Girl, you better stay in that house and not risk your life trying to come to my HomeGoing because I will see you again, but don't want to see you too soon. So I am going to remember B.J. the last time that I saw her back in March when I came out there to Janice's Bridal Shower. I will remember our last conversations. I will forever keep the family, Rebecca and my co-workers at the I.R.S. in my prayers. I Love each one of you.
January 31, 2010
To the Muldrow Family, who is also my extended family, I am so very sorry for your loss. It was also my loss to. I lost my very best friend. What's even worse, I wasn't able to make it to the funeral because of the weather. I am so sad about that, but my prayers are with you my family. I love you all very much. If you all ever need me for anything let me know. Here's a big hug from me to you all. Love Joyce Cottrell-Scott.

To Rebecca Ademola and Veronica Young...
Sisters, I won't be able to attend the homegoing celebration for our beloved "BJ" today because of the inclement weather. Just know that my prayers are with you both as you behold the transittion along with her family on today. You both were truly good friends of "BJ". Inseperable you all were. I have only happy fond memories of the times we had with "BJ". My heart grieves along with you and her family. But I won't grieve long because this world is not my home; I'm just passing by as "BJ" did.
All my hopes and treasures are all laid up on high. I will miss my friends, co-workers and loved ones who are all gone on before me. God willing, I will continue to live until my time comes to die. We shall, as Christians and believers of Christ, shall live until our time to die. Truly God is a good God. You'll have to know Him to understand all that He has to do at such a time as this.
"BJ" has graduated! And I ain't mad at her! (smiles) If she had to leave us with a few words of comfort, I believe she would have said, "Stay with God, be a blessing to others and love one another. I'll holla at ya'll when ya'll get here. You can call this a wrap." (smiles)
You know I love you both.
Love

To The Muldrow Family
"BJ" was loved by many of us who had the priviledge to have known her for many years at the Internal Revenue Services. How could anyone not love such a brilliant, bright, joyful, hilarious, loveable soul like "BJ". A ray of sunshine whenever you saw her. A strong black Woman who had STYLE and knew how to coordinate every fabric that she wore including all accessories whenever she came to work. How bout that "BJ". Conversations with "BJ" were aways to the point, whether they were serious or humorous. Muldrow Family, I thank God and you for sharing "BJ" with me and our IRS Family. I was told that "BJ" was giving God all the glory and praise when she knew in her spirit that He was coming to take her home to rest. What a way to leave this world of sin into the arms of the Lord! To God Be All The Glory for the things He has done! My prayer is that you all will have continuous happy memories of your beloved "BJ" as I would, and that God will strengthen each and everyone of you as the days, weeks, months and years goes by. We all will meet "BJ" again when we are there to see our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, crowned King of Kings and Lord of Lords. What a time! What a time! What a time! We're going to have!!! Blessed Be The Name Of The Lord!!! Gloooooory!!!!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I met B.J.(Barbara Joyce) back in 1993 when she came from Exams to Collections. I met her through Rebecca. She and Rebecca were very very close friends. They were close like sisters. If you saw one, you saw the other one. Once I sarted to talking with B.J., I found out that we had a few things in common. We shared the same name,(Joyce). We both had lived in the Graceland Farms Apartments. Rebecca were both our friends. She had attended Booker T. Washington with my cousins. Her niece, Katrina and my son Courtney had a crush on each other in elementary school. We both loved fashions. B.J.'s passion was shopping and coming up with the latest trends. She couldn't wait for summer to come, so that she could wear her sandals, she would always have on pretty sandals and she had the feet to wear them. B.J. loved Christmas. That was her favorite time of the year. She had a board at work that counted down the days of Christmas. She couldn't wait to decorate her house for Christmas and put up the tree. Most of all, she loved her family. When I would come to work every morning around 9:30am, she would be talking to one of her family members, checking to make sure they were OK. She also loved her nieces, Katrina, Courtney and Myrna two girls. She would always share conversations and pictures about them. We watched them grow from babies to young adults.
She also loved her close friends, Robert, Rebecca, Wanda,Delores, Helen and Joyce who lived out of town. She really really loved her parents. She was a Daddy's girl. Anything she wanted, her daddy would get it for her. I remember the time that she called her dad one day and asked him to prepare her favorite meal and have it ready for her when she came home from work. When she got home, the meal was ready for her. She was a really realy sweet and kind person. Anything you asked her to do, she would help you in any way that she could. I was the Lead Tax Technician in the Unit. She assisted me many times by answering the employees questions and helping them in any way that she could. She never complained about anything. When I got ready to retire, she volunteered to go up front and escort my family to the Retirement Celebration. She told me that she was right behind me. She would be out the next year. She was counting down the days. She will be greatly Missed. Sleep on B.J., take your Rest, We loved you, but God loved you Best. I enjoyed being in your her presence and glad that I had the opportunity to meet a Kind and Sweet person. She will be MISSED.I will continue to keep the Family and Friends in my prayers. May God continue to Bless and Keep each one of you.

AS best friend to Barbara's late oldest brother Peter(Bernie Jr.) I knew her best as she grew up with the rest of the siblings. She was always the boldest of the girls and she was funny, a joy and she grew into a fine woman and her personality never changed,she remained a joy to be around.I will miss her. The Bell family from Tate Street will keep Mother Dorothy Muldrow and family in our prayers.

I met BJ twenty-seven years ago through my sister Pamela Wicks. She was introduced to me as Bobbie-Jo. Pam and BJ were close friends and co-workers. Pam passed away February 23,1992. I won't say don't cry. But, I will tell you that Earth has sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. I pray that the joy of knowing she's no longer suffering overshadows the pain of her physical absence.

Aunt Barbara was more than an aunt to my sisters and me. She was like a second mom; always there when we needed her. She had a very special way of expressing her love and concern for our lives. I will truly miss her and the times we shared right up to the final moments. My memories of us together will remain in my heart. Thanks to everyone who's prayed and shared kind words and gestures. Please continue to pray for us during this time of loss and remember Aunt BJ is no longer in pain; she's resting in our Father's hands. Praise God for the victory has been won!

To Katrina and Family,
I am so grateful to have been able to meet Aunt Barbara. While it was only one time, she left a lasting impression with me. My only wish is that I'd been given many more opportunities to be in her presence. While I know this has to be a hard time for the family, Aunt Barbara now has eternal healing. Her suffering and pain is all over. Try to find comfort in knowing that she has been healed and is suffering no more.
