To Barbara's family, she gave me so many great memories of the Poughkeepsie days when she loved us in spite of ourselves. I will remember her laugh the most - she was always quick to share a laugh. What a big personality, yet generous and kind. She leaves behind some incredible people who she loved dearly. We share the sadness of your loss.

To my childhood best friend's mother, Mrs. Schiatta; I loved coming over and laughing with you and Lynn. Especially when you bought me my favorite snack foods. You were always so funny, loving and welcoming.
May you rest in peace.
Love, Marilyn
