God bless you all with the beautiful memories of Barbara. She was our friend when we attended Golden Acres UMC and I worked with her at the bank on Burke. She will be missed and I am sorry we didn't know about her passing until yesterday when it was in the paper because I would have liked to attend the service. You are all in our prayers.
