A true friend of over forty years has transitioned into eternal rest. Barbara remained steadfast and faithful. Unfortunately, this year while attending the annual meeting at BC, our paths didn't cross. I missed the smile and hug! So my friend, you were great and did well. Barbara, you finished your course and kept the faith. Rest in Paradise!

PEACE AND BLESSINGS to THE MOORE FAMILY.

HER SOUL HAS WINGS, she has gone to that higher place of peace. Where gravity and tides have lost their stay. She is lifted up above the noise and haste of life to realms of solitude far/far away. Her soul has wings and longs to rise above to dwell in peace with God's eternal love. She has flown.

May the family find comfort in knowing that God only pick the best out of his garden. Barbara was loved by many and will be greatly missed. Even though, we did not stay in touch I will miss my classmate. Seeing her at the class reunion brought back memories of our school days. The CAJ class of 68 was unforgettable and whenever we get together time seems to stand still.
