She was and is a wonderful woman. She helped me on so many levels in chiropractor college! I am grateful to her and she made the world a better place!

Dear Martha and family,
I was so very sorry to hear that Barbara had transitioned. I was her MS Yoga Teacher, and Barbara was a core member of our Yoga Family. We all certainly knew that the past couple of years had been a struggle for Barbara with one physical challenge after another. All of which she met with grace and boundless faith. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to know such a loving and pure soul, and pray that she is now resting in peace. Healing light and love to you, and may you find inner peace.

Barbara was a gentle soul, and good friend , from the very first time my partner and I met her at ARE. It was about 14 years ago.
She and I both had a condition that affected mobility , and she joked, calling us "the gimps". She was a volunteer at ARE at that time. The three of us talk many times of the work of Cayce. She was well versed in it.
She was a special lady, and will be missed very much. She is now with the rest of angels where her soul is at home. Barbara, we are better for having known you! Karen Truitt and Ron Simmons
