I only recently heard of Barb's passing. She was the first person I met at PGHS. I was trying out for cheerleading. I saw that she was a beautiful person, both in her looks and personality and I strived to be like her. She suffered some cruel situations in her life but now in the Lord's hands she is free. Much love to her family, who are very lucky to have had her in their lives.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death.

I worked with Barb at Home health and Hospice-she was always kind, caring and loving. Always happy and lit up the room with her smile. She was a wonderful lady. Prayers to all.

So sorry for your loss. Barb was a wonderful addition to Bible studies we shared and loved to volunteer at church. That smile was the best! Being around her always made one feel better and knowing she was waiting to great you at Sharptown Church's lobby to catch up on life were special times. She and I once agreed it felt like we had known each other forever. She felt so lucky to have time with all her kids and husband. She will be missed and never forgotten.
