Dear Ernestine, We want to express our sincere sympathy to you and your family. We remember so many wonderful things about Barbara...so many birthdays, about one every week. And then there was the nail polish, how she loved that. Ernestine, we think of you often and remember the fun times we had working together in the kitchen at FBC. We pray that God will comfort you now and give you peace.
Love and prayers,

Dear Ernestine, Patti and Allene:
I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to all of you in the loss of Barbara.
Allene, I hope you are doing well, even in this sad time. I have many wonderful memories of times we were together, so many years ago! I remember the times I rode my bike to your house to spend the afternoon. I remember Patti's bedroom painted with all the cartoon characters. I remember your little chihuahua and I remember the "silver slug"! And Barbara was there, every time, with a smile on her face, excited to see "her friends" that had come to see her!
Mrs. Forward, my mother, Mary has many, many memories also. We would like to come to the chapel this afternoon to visit with you all, if possible, since it's been too long since the last time!
In my thoughts and prayers,
May 14, 2010
Ernestine & family... Our prayers are with you. The Capo's
