I wish I had known her better but what I do know was she was kind to me. When Steve and I got married we couldn“t afford a honeymoon and she let us stay at her house on the beach. There was a beautiful basket of treats and a beautiful view of the ocean. It was wonderful. The one time I was able to spend with her she treated us to a weekend at the Phoenician resort in Arizona and a lovely dinner. I was so impressed by the fact that she had her own business and was very successful. Rest peacefully Aunt Barbara.

It is heart wrenching to find my sister has passed. We shared an incredible childhood. I remember so well watching her run in the yard her dandelion fluffy hair blowing in the wind. Barbara studied the flute for many years and had the opportunity to play with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra while in high school. Barbara was owner of local Allie business. She enjoyed playing golf and bridge. She had many pet dogs over the years.
Rest in peace Barbara.
Your sister,
Marie
