I'm just learning of Barbara's passing. She worked together at Berkeley City College. Barbara was a sweetheart she would bring us food just about everyday. We would talk and laugh and have a good time working. She taught me so much. I often think about her and wonder how she is doing. Now I know she is in Heaven. RIP Barbara

It's the end of 2020 and I'm sadden to find news of Barbara's passing. She will be missed greatly. Covid has provided a lot of time for reflection. I've found this post as I was looking to reconnect with old acquaintances. Thank you Barbara for taking me under your wing while at Vista college. It's been 17 years since we worked alongside each other. Thank you for all the teachings, lessons and laughter.

I will always be grateful to Barbara for taking care of my newborn while my husband and I had a mini vacation. She did not hesitate to offer her help. Thank you Barbara for your selfless act of kindness that gave me a much needed break.
