    Barbara enriched all our lives. Can’t imagine her never being in mine. Whenever I needed a pick-me-up, I would phone Barbara. She always gave me good advice, made me happy and made me feel loved. I will struggle with the loss of my special friend but, I will reach deep in my beautiful memories of her, when ever I need one of her pick-me-ups. God Bless you Barbara and thank you God, for blessing us with this beautiful soul for so many lovely years. She was a special gift. Sincere sympathy to Barbara’s beautiful family and all her dear friends. Gail and Roy.
