My prayers are with you and your family. I went to high school with Barb and have not seen her since, yet her wonderful personality and sense of humor will always stay in my memory. She was a very special and truly inspirational friend to all, and although we haven't crossed paths for over thirty years she shall remain in my prayers and my memory as with all who knew her.

I knew Barb through my sister Janet. Janet and Barb went through St. Mary's and Marquette together. Barb had the most contagious laugh! I was in grade school and high school with Ed, also. My prayers are with all of the family at this sad time.

Dave:
I worked with Barb on numerous occasions while at Frozen. She was a class act. Her kindness and fun attitude made working with her something I always looked forward to.
Although I only met you on one occasion - through knowing and working with Phil, I always felt like I knew you. I'm deeply sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

When I heard of Barb's passing I wanted to send a rememberance. Barb, you were a good friend, and a consumate professional. You had an infectious smile and you always had the right words to say. I really enjoyed working with you at CFF and having you as my friend. May your passage be light filled and happy. And I just know that Lori Kalina and Jim Shannon will be there to catch up on old times..have fun dear friends!
Godspeed Barb. You will be missed.

I share the feelings of the other people that knew Barb through ConAgra. It was easy to see Barb was a kind person and professional with the highest integrity. I was honored to work with her.

I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Barb at ConAgra and fortunate to have spent time with Barb at Phil and Kim's wedding. Barb will be greatly missed by all that knew her - she had a special gift that made us all very fond of her as a wonderful person and friend. She will always be in our memories.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Brunner and Brammer families.

Dear Dave and the Brunner/Brammer Families:
My deepest sympathy to you. I knew Barb as the loving sister of Linda Olszowy, who is my sister-in-law. Barb was dear sister-in-law to my brother, Joe, and a kind aunt to their children Kayla and Joey Olszowy. Aunt Barbie remembered them for birthdays and special occasions and made it a point to keep in touch after moving to Omaha. Barb stuck me as a rational, professional woman of substance who valued her family, friends and work. She looked beautiful in that deep red dress at Joe and Linda's Valentine's Day wedding. Linda always spoke of Barb in the highest regard and was happy that she and Dave found each other. May Barb rest in peace.

Dear Dave, and the Brunner/Brammer families,
I worked with Barb in the HR department at ConAgra Frozen Foods and was fortunate enough to maintain a friendship with her beyond CAG through my friend, Kim Brammer. Barb was a kind and genuine person and will be greatly missed. All those whose lives she touched have suffered a great loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time.

Barb and I served on a team together a while ago and became friends. She had the most wonderful laugh and sense of humor. I remember when she told me she was getting married...she knew she had met her soulmate. She loved life, her family, and her friends and I feel so lucky to have known her.

Dave and Family -
I was just informed by a dear friend in Omaha of Barb's passing. I worked with Barb at ConAgra Frozen - she in HR and I was in IT. Barb was always a consumate professional and an all-around good person.
My sympathies to you and your family.

Barb will be sadly missed by all who knew her. I have known Barb since the work days in St. Louis. She was always a pleasure to be with and was always willing to help me. I am grateful for the opportunity to have known her.

A few of us were just sharing fond memories of Barb and the old HR Frozen Foods gang... she will be remembered fondly. I will never forget all of our laughs and singing to her CD player. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I lost a good friend today. Barb was always there for all of us during the good times and the not so good times. I will always remember her driving that 50 foot boat on the Lake of the Ozarks with the entire HR staff on board. Those were great times.

Barb, You are still here with us and ALWAYS will be. You really don't know how much you have meant to me. I went to kindergarten through High School with you, you were in my wedding, and then we continued our friendship throughout the years. I will cherish that forever. I miss you so much already, I will be talking to you through my prayers.
Love always and always, Sue

I was thinking about Barb this weekend and wondering how she was doing. Must have been my 6th sense that she was saying goodbye. My thoughts and prayers are with you Dave and your family.

Barb was one of the best Managers I've had during my career. She was much more than a work associate, she was a friend. Even with all of the moves and changes she was someone I could always talk to and she was a great listener. She will be greatly missed by me.

Dave - I am so sorry to hear of Barb's passing. I know she will be dearly missed. I met her, then you through Jerry and Janine. When I think of Barb, I see her sitting poolside enjoying her friends. Please know you are in our thoughts. Brenda and Mike Gibbs
