Barbara and I met in Jerusalem before 1975. We bonded even more when we spent two years in New York 1975 1977. When then met each time we, my late husband prof. Ariel rosler and I were in the USA .
Barbara was brave and funny . She loved music and singing. She was a gooood friend and during our last encounter we had dinner at hee new apartment in Manhattan. She showed us the extra room "for us"... we never got to stay there.. I often mourn her passing.

Even though this note is many years from the sadness of your Mom´s passing I just wanted to share the Elementary School friendship that we entertained during our walks to and from Plaza School, especially during our hour long lunch period. I too lived on Whitehall Road and recall with great fondness our many years of childhood walks. I just wanted to share a particular happy memory that occurred many decades ago and one that will stay with me forever. With Condolences and Warmth Glenn Berger from New Hampshire

I knew Barbara since1975 when I and my wife where in N.Y. sppent 2 years. Barbara was a lovely person. She started her struggle already. She had her first cancer, a skin melanoma. After this she had twice breast cancer. She fought these very couragesly. The last one finished her.... My condolences to Judith and the boys.

Judy, Chuck and Boys: Barbara always made me laugh! She was a wonderful friend. I will never forget the Christmas the four of us spent at our house in Connecticut. I was in the middle of cooking a huge dinner for Christmas Eve and there was no electricity--no heat, nothing! So the four of us (including Michael and Gene)
snuggled up in front of the fireplace, sang Christmas carols, drank champagne and woke up to a gorgeous snowfall--and lights! it will always be one of my favorite Christmas memories.
I share in your joy in having known her and your sorrow in having lost her.

Dear Judy and Chuck, Matt and Josh.
I knew from our childhood on Whitehall Road that Barbara was someone special. I remember her keen sense of humor and the fun shared by all the neighbors and friends. She always kept us laughing.
I was so sorry to hear of her passing. My family sends our best to all of you at this sad time.

Josh and Matt,
My heart goes out to you and your family upon the sudden loss of your dear mother. Your mom was a colleague/friend of mine at CUNY. She and I enjoyed many trips to DC for our annual meetings as well as shopping, walking and good food. Her memorial service paid homage to her 110%; from the colored tissue packets to the food (everything from soup to dessert). Your mom was a true lady in every sense and I will sorely miss her. I only hope that all of your fond memories of her carry you through this difficult time.
Best,
Hilry Fisher (Graduate Center/CUNY)

I enjoyed working with Barbara at Lehman College and was happy to see her at the Met opera last spring. She was so proud of her grown up sons and happy to be an Upper West Sider. Please accept my condolences. What a loss for her beloved family and for her community.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. It's during times such as these that we can find comfort in the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:9, 10 . . .‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth'. Only God's Kingdom can bring peace, happiness, perfect health, and everlasting life.
