Barbara, you were always a second Mom to me. I´ve known you for forever and have so many fond memories, like the time I gave you that perm before the Gaslight festival. Haha. There are so many more memories that I´ll cherish forever. I´ll always think of you and will miss you so much. I love you so much! My life wouldn´t have been the same without you. Love you, Mom!
