When we were in the 4th grade at Woodruff School we dressed up as favorite characters in the books we were reading and we went to different schools and gave a poem about our character and the students had to guess who we were. Barbara was Runnaway Bunny and I was Annie Oakley. Barbara was always so friendly and fun to be with. She will be greatly missed. Karen Larsen Anthon
