Barb was one of the sweetest ladies I´ve ever met. My son George & her had a special bond, he called her his "Auction Grandma". I can see how so much of her strength and good quality´s has filtered down throughout her family, whom she was so proud of. She treated everyone like a friend. May she Rest In Peace.
