My mother Irene Winters, lived next door to Barbara at The Springs and I saw her often when I visited. She loved talking politics and even organized a weekly dinner for the purpose of discussing current events which I attended a few times. She was always so happy to see me and encouraged me to come again. My condolences to all the family.

I have great memories growing up being at Barbara's house, swimming and had a lot of the Holidays at her house. My heart goes out to Ann and her daughters. R.I.P. Barbara.
