    Barb’s Family,
    Barb was a special person, not like you don’t know this already. Always caring/thinking of the other person. I will miss passing her in hall at work and feeling her smile. I’m sorry for your loss.

    Dear Helen, Bob and family,
    What a special woman Barb was, I have many fond memories of her that I will always cherish, especially babysitting for her and Whitey all those years ago now. I know right now it’s so hard to deal with this terrible and sudden loss of this wonderful woman. I know Barb is now with our Lord and Savior, and I thank and praise God she is one of His children, so some day, we will join her and all believers in Heaven. May you find strength and comfort in His Word and through God’s love, mercy and grace. My heart and prayers go out to you.
    Victoria

    Gerald, our hearts go out to you and your family. Shirley and I only had the pleasure of visiting with Barbara a few times and wished we would have had an opportunity to have you two visit us here in Colorado.

    To Barb’s extended family: I have only known Barb a short time at BSC working on Sterling together. Over the last few days I have heard many gracious stories shared in our break rooms especially from those who knew her for so many years. I knew her ‘real’ life was outside of work as she would keep us updated on her weeknight plans and week-ends all revolving around her family. You were all most certainly special to her. She truely was a super woman to so many. I just feel like she left us too soon. My thoughts are with you.
