Dear Harry and Coleen,
It is with profound sadness that we have learned of Barbara's passing. We have many fond memories of Barbara and Harry (and Coleen) at my folk's Brooklyn home. My mother, Joan Carney, told me I was named after Barbara, and she was my godmother. We will always remember her smile and her laughter. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
