Barbara L. Downen

Barb, I'm very sad to hear of your leaving us on this earth. We go back a long way to our junior high school days. You were one of my best friends! My memory takes me back to some of the fun we had such as lying awake on sleeping bags at night looking at the stars and predicting what the future holds. When you stayed with my family after your parents moved to Vernon we would play catch in our backyard. You were the person that started me skiing and was my instructor. You were behind me when I could not stop and I hit the fence at Happy Valley. More recently when Craig & I visited you and Joe in Phoenix a couple of times. I'm sorry I did not know of your failing health as I would have contacted you. We will meet again one day. Your friend, Joan Borden (Stewart).

My dear Barb you were the kindest most loving friend and I´m devastated to know you are gone. I´ll forever remember your friendship from all our growing up years in Calgary and our travels together in 1967 ! Although apart for our adult lives, you will be forever remembered and in my heart "you crazy girl ". Darlene Reid Harris

See you soon my friend

RIP my dear friend. You will be missed. We love you Royce and Billie

Prayers for the family of Barbara. Sorry to hear of her passing .
