Barbara was like no other. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister, Christian, and above all, friend. Barb is the perfect role model of a life well lived. Throughout her difficult times, she maintained that wonderful smile and "twinkle" in her eye. She always made it about you, even when you were visiting her in the ICU. Barb was "grace-filled" - she knew God, and He loved her. Rest in the peace you SO deserve, Barb~ We will miss you tremendously, but rejoice in knowing your breath has been taken away by the One who made you beautiful!! Much love,

Barbara was a wonderful woman. She was full of fun, faith, and was very affirming. I am grateful for the years she volunteered to help with RCIA at Holy Redeemer. Her faith stories and words of encouragement did a great deal to help the class fall in love with God and the Catholic Church. I will miss her warmth, joy and love. My deepest condolences to her dearly beloved family who she always talked about with great joy.
