She was my first friend when moving to Roanoke and I remember her sweet smile and loving ways...taught by her Mother and Father.. Billy also.They had such a kind friendlyspirit. May you feel God's presence, have his strength and comfort. With Love in Christ,

Barbara was a lovely lady and a ray of sunshine in the apartment complex. Nobody was a stranger to her. She enjoyed life and lived it to the fullest. I will miss her smile and her winning personality. To the family and friends, I extend my sincerest and heartfelt sympathy for your loss of a jewel of a person. May God give you comfort and bring you peace.

Barbara was a friend and neighbor of my sister, Dee. Altho her passing was a shock to all of us. Her lord who she loved was not shocked that she would be with him on that Wednesday morning. Her "I love you" will be
missed and her smile that could light up a room. Barbara we love you too!

I did not know Barbara personally, but she attended our monthly Birthday Get-togethers at the Apt. Complex. She will be missed at our future get-togethers. She loved music very much. She would get up and dance using her walker. She was always cheerful and had such a sweet disposition about her. Everyone enjoyed her company and conversing. Our group here at the Apt. Complex extend our deepest sympathy to the family on the passing of a beautiful lady. Barbara...now you can dance with the angels! RIP

I met Barbara in the spring of '90 through a friend of her daughter Jennifer. She was indeed a very loving and caring mother/person and she made me feel as if I were part of her family. To all of her dear family, may the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead.
