My favorite memory of Aunt Barb was walking down the aisle at her wedding as the ring bearer. I thought I was marrying the flower girl. Later, at my own wedding she told me, "my flower girl will be so upset" with a little smile and that twinkle in her eye. She was always sweet, kind to everyone, very patient and giving. Rest in Peace Aunt Barb. You made the world a little more beautiful.

Barb was a beautiful person who was always kind, thoughtful and helpful with any activities that we were involved. She always had a smile no matter how she felt or the troubles she carried. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers to Michael and Jodie, and all family members.
