I grew up near Barbara´s mom and dad and have many fond childhood memories of spending time with Kim and her mom. Barb was such a lovely person who always made me feel welcome. I´m so sorry for your loss. Lucinda (Gibson) Nicholas

Barbara's Dad and my Dad were lifelong friends and our families spent a lot of good times together. My sis and I would often go to movies with Barb and her friends. Barbara was a very sweet girl and a good friend. I have tried to find out where she moved without success. Pat (Corsiatto) Swinburne Taylorville IL
