I loved Aunt Barb, very, very much! She was one of my favorite people and I wish I could have afforded to visit more often. Whenever we kids knew we were going to see her and family, it was always exciting! I was honored to be part of her wedding. It also was the reason I adore champagne! Lol! Aunt Barb was easy to talk to. She was wise, witty and full of fun. I miss her very, very much!

To the entire Dickett Family,
I had the pleasure of knowing Barbara from North Park School. I had both her children, Brian and Lisa as students. She was an amazing woman who fully supported our school initiatives. I still have a keepsake recipe box that she made for me which was indicative of her artistic abilities. She was a go getter and went the extra mile. If I wasn't away I would definitely be at the calling hours. There are so many reasons that Barbara will be cherished in the hearts of family and friends.
