Though I knew Barb very briefly, I was truly touched by her generosity and enthusiasm for people and life. I'm so sorry for your loss. The world is a little less vibrant knowing she's gone.

Jeremy,
I'm saddened by the passing of your Mother. Nothing prepares us for the loss of this magnitude. Just know that you have great support at work and if you need to talk, I'm always available. Thoughts are with you today as everyone gathers to celebrate the life of your Mom.

Barb will be so deeply missed. The memories of all of us- the many cousins- as children, tumbling around our grandparents home, will be with me forever, as will memories of Barb's generous, lively and kind spirit and the love of books we shared with our grandmother. I wish it had been possible for me to arrive in Wisconsin in time to be with you all for services. Please know that I am with young spirit- and mourning with you this loss of someone we all loved. I still can't believe she's gone.

Rick, Jeremy & family,
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Barb. Barb was so kind and generous. In the Bible it says that the world is not our final home, our true home is in Heaven where we will all be together again. Love and prayers to you and the family. Patty (Evan's sister) & Dave Rockne.

Rick and Family-I met Barb sort of serendipitously through a mutual friend, Barb Wimpee. She was a lovely, bright inspiration for me and Barb (Wimpee). I am so so very sorry to have heard this news. My deepest and heartfelt sympathy.

It is so hard to believe that she has gone. We knew each other since we were just kids and over the years she shared many events within with our family. She was a good person and I think she enjoyed life. She had a wonderful sense of humor and this she leaves us, as a gift, the happy memories. She will be greatly missed by so many. God bless her, her family and friends.
