Barbara (called BP by Saundra and me) was one of my dearest friends at GJHS during our years of teaching there. We continued to celebrate with our "birthday " lunches for all the years that she lived in Russellville. I´m so saddened to read if her passing. She was such a wonderful, loving person. Steve and I are sending love and hugs to Jon, Jay , Deloris and Tracy and her brother and the granddaughters. She loved all of you so much and spoke of all of you every time we were together. My heart has a deep hole inside now that she has passed away.
