Our tribute to a friend of mine since Kindergarten, and Greg's through high school forward. Barbara always offered a kind word and a sincere soul. "When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight."

Barbara and I have been friends on and off since high school. Enjoyed spending time with her and Rick at high school reunion2013.We've been texting and taking ever since. Will miss the friendship we shared. It went so fast from her last text.
Barb and I met in Sunday School when we were 7 years old. Our friendship lasting all this time. Our high school years were so much fun, going to football and basketball games with our group of friends. Barb and Rick started raising their family and Barb and I got together when we could- especially our annual Christmas shopping trip to the mall. As Barb and Rick moved over the years we stayed in touch by phone (long calls!) , texts and a few visits. Her last years have been very difficult but she put up a good fight. I already miss talking to her.
Rest in peace, my friend.
She will be missed. So sweet and so kind she always puts my heart in a special way. I love the fact that we loved the dachshund breed together and I always look forward to her Christmas cards with Rocky on them every year. I’m so glad that she is not in pain anymore and she is with our Lord. Finally living in piece. Love you, Barbara forever in my heart.
I was so sorry to hear of Barbara’s passing. Since moving here she became not only a hair client but also a friend. And the Jersey stories she told were awesome. I looked forward to our visits. I will miss her, and I’m praying for her husband Rick, her dog Rocky, and her daughter Kelley. Godspeed for all her people.
