Aunt Barbara was such a beautiful person inside and out! She always had a smile on her face and a kind word to speak. She and my dad, Charles, were siblings. They loved each other dearly! She affectionately called him "Charlie!" I remember when my girls were small and we´d visit Aunt Barbara in Danville. She always gave them a handful of money. They still remember that to this day! She had a heart of gold! Our memories of her shall live on forever in our hearts!!
