I am happy that Barbara had such a full life with many grand-children. I am only sad for myself, because I did not find enough time to spend with Barbara. When Barbara shared information with me about my genealogy, she only had wonderful things to say about my parents Wally and Ellen. I am glad that she is with God, however I am sorry I have to wait to see her in heaven.



Love,
