I was 19 when I met Barb at Coldwell Banker Faith Properties. She took me under her wing and became one of my closest friends. She was a beautiful lady with a great sense of humor and could tell so many great stories. She would share memories of her husband and Michael - she cherished both of them. I will miss her laugh, hugs and humor. Fly high Beautiful Barb - I will miss you

I'm so sad to hear of Barbara's passing! All of us loved her. She was always smiling and so loving! I remember she gave me a bridal shower before I got married 55 years ago at her home on Sunset Ave. All my love and prayers to John Michael and all of Barbara's nieces and nephews.

Michael and family...
On behalf of Coldwell Banker Faith Properties, we join you in mourning the loss of the "Grand Dame"of our Company.

Well before I started my Real Estate career, I met Barb ( when I was a teenager)... she caught everyone´s attention when she walked into a room.
Her big personality and her unforgettable smile was there to greet me when I joined Coldwell
Banker Faith 35 years ago. Years later, she encouraged me to buy the firm, and agreed to help
In the transition... She was one of the sales leaders of the area housing market for nearly 50 years, and kind to every single person she met, in and out of business.
A legacy agent, irecognized throughout her career for her volume of sales,...she never neglected her roots, her family or friends and was the quintessential example of the sometimes forgotten hospitality of our region. Open arms and a hug to everyone, and when you didn´t think you needed a hug...one from Barbara reminded you that we always need a hug.
She was the best of the best. A ,pioneer in the male dominated Rotary Club, and when woman were allowed to join...there was Barbara, smiling to help break barriers.

Our firm will mourn the loss of Barb, but comforted to know she is back in the arms of her beloved Stanley, her "flannel shirt man".
Her bit of outrageous and outlandish brought fun and laughter to us all.
She will be missed by all that knew her..
May her sweet memory be eternal.

Barbie started with Faith Properties when we were on 225 Campion Road. She was our first `real´ sales person that had sales and people credentials. She was a great cheerleader. She made it possible for other people to eventually join our company and build it to what it is today.
She loved helping new people as she was very loving and giving. She was truly a great lady and she will be missed.
