I will miss your pleasant words and sweet smile.
I will always remember our special lunches with
the Bank One gals and also with our mutual friends,
the Borschs,,,,we had many good times together.
I always have the special Christmas Dish you gave
me among other things, to look at this time of year
especially. Enjoy your heavenly home and know
you are remembered fondly. Your friend, Monica

What a joy it was to work with Barbara throughout the years. We will surely miss her at our bank retirement luncheons. She was always involved and so proud of her children and their families. I will surely miss her.
