Barbara Ann Saner was my cousin. Uncle Romie and Aunt Laura lived near by. I especially remember the Sunday dinners we all shared and all the happy times together while growing up. I have not lived in Riverton for a long time but Joyce and I will always remember Barbara Ann as a good and kind person.

It was with deep sorrow to learn of Barbara's passing. Our familys spent many fun times together over the years.
Ive known Barbara since she was 5 years old.
I cant attend the services due to the distance, but my thoughts and prayers are with her and I will have a mass said at St. James in her honor.
God bless.
