I am blessed to have met Barbara and Donald a few years back when they came in for a visit to his sisters. I enjoyed listening to all the family history and going for a ride looking around seeing where the family had grown up and lived in the passed and making our own memories together. I will never forget how much they made me fell like family. I learned a lot from both of them. My heart goes out to the family at this time and in the days ahead.

We all at the dialysis clinic will miss Barbara and Don! They always had a smile and were so friendly! I always enjoyed listening to her stories! She certainly loved this grandkids! What a wonderful couple! I am blessed to have had the chance to know them. Don dutifully brought her to the clinic every Mon/Wed/Fri. Their love was obvious and undeniable. We should all be blessed to have someone who is so dedicate to caring for us in such trying times. God bless the Holsopples!! Peace! Praise God for salvation through Christ! No more pain...no more troubles...just joy for eternity! :-)
