Barbara was a wonderful friend for many years. I remember when she brought Arlo to our home. I knew right away they were a loving couple. We knew her sons, and we were part of her committee when she was studying to become a deacon and I, and several others from St. Andrew's, Waterfprd, MI, worked with her after-school program at All Saint's, Pontiac. She will be missed by many.

Barbara was a dear friend and fellow colleague in diaconal ministry. During our time in the Diocese of Michigan we had times we served together. Barb was very supportive and encouraging. Her primary ministry was to children and to the poor. She created and developed an effective after school program at All Saints Episcopal Church in Pontiac, Michigan.
