I just came across this August 13th 2025. I am very saddened to hear of Barbs passing. I grew up knowing her through my sister Barb( deceased) and many times would babysit her kids. She was a wonderful lady. I have some great memories of her and my sister. Bob FudGerragine.

Barb was always a joy to be around. Her smart remarks and facial expressions kept us laughing. Now her and Gary are together again and will be watching you all from above. So sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathies to Barb´s family. She and Gary were very close friends of my parents. Bud and Lois Ogden. As the story goes, she´s pretty much responsible for them even dating. Without her, I might not be here. Remember her very fondly.

My sympathy to Barb´s family. Barb was always so friendly and kind. She was at the library one day with a great big bag of books. I was so impressed thinking she must be an avid reader.

Barb always called me Micole and always had gossip to tell me. We will keep her memory alive in her home that we now live in. We still have many "Barb" pieces that we will never remove. You will be so greatly missed Barb!
Love,
Nicole, Sky, Jordy, Jovanni, Jyran, Jeevah

We are deeply sorry for the loss of Barb. She was a wonderful person who always treated me so kind. The last time we were together, Carol and I stopped by on Alumni weekend and sat on the porch with Barb and Marlene. I will certainly miss her, but take comfort knowing she is at peace with our Lord.
