Aunt Barbara's servitude to her family and church made her an amazing disciple of God. I will be praying for your loss. I will forever have fond memories of the Christmas celebrations we had at her home when I was young. Especially all of her delicious cookies.

Barb was a neighbor on our street and contributed for many years in our Community. She was a wonderful neighbor with a great sense of humor! I loved to hear her talk about dancing lessons! We are very sorry for your loss and know that many in GRC have you in our prayers at this difficult time.
