Barbara will be missed by all who knew her. She always delighted in tormenting me regarding her friendship with Eldon Miller, former OSU Basketball Coach, and her love of the Cincinnati Reds.

During our 40 plus years of friendship, we shared a love for her family and The Ohio State Buckeyes. I am so thankful she is no longer suffering, and will always be here for you.

Love, Aunt Doll

Barbara: I only knew you a short time but you live on forever in my heart & in the eyes of your daughter Dayna & grandsons Alex & Luke. You will be missed incredibly by Dayna, but she goes on today though your body gone, your spirit right in her heart. We all miss you. It's not the same when the Buckeyes play--Dayna always called you to discuss the game & complain too!! But Luke put it all in perspective; "grandma is right down there on the field with the Buckeyes and has the best seat to watch the game". We think so too!! Miss you Barbara...

Mom...not only were you the best mom you were my best friend. I miss you already. I am so relieved you are pain free and with God. I love you and will carry on your memory through Luke and Alex who by the way already know what life as a buckeye means, we never wear blue and yellow together.

To Barbara's Family - I am saddened to hear just now of Barbara's passing. She was my "teacher/mentor" at WPC when I came to work there. But more than that, she was a wonderful friend. She will be greatly missed. May her love for all of you fill your hearts forever w/ great happiness and wash away the sadness you feel today.

To a special Aunt, I will always remember our time spent together particularly at Buckeye football games. It was such a joy to spend a beautiful fall Saturday in the Shoe with you, Aunt Carol and Aunt Doll rooting on our beloved Buckeyes. It was you that passed on to me a life long love for the Buckeyes and I will think of you everytime I watch a Buckeye Game. I will truly miss you.

God Bless you and your family

Carol, I'm so sorry for your loss. You were there for her, taking care of her needs, physically, emotionally and spiritually, from the beginning. You serve as a wonderful example to all of us.
