Barb was a fellow nurse and friend at Geisinger. She was skilled, warm, kind and funny! My most precious memory of Barb was when she stopped by to visit my daughter and my brand new granddaughter . Barb´s face lit up when she held her and she named my little Mackenzie , "Sweet Pea." From that day forward and 23 years later I still call her Sweet Pee and I ALWAYS think of Barb. Heaven gained a beautiful Angel. God bless her and your family, Barry.

Barbara would probably say she was just was doing what needed to be done to care for the patients and her co-workers.
Thank you for all your kind comments. It's touching. She passed away peacefully with us beside her.
Prayers
Barry and the boys

I was a CNA at Centre Crest from 2009-2012 while I was working on my RN degree. She was so kind to me. She will be missed by many.
