Barbara lived well and loved well, and I grieve along with her beloved husband and children for my dear sister.

As a young girl my beautiful sister would always have me stay summers with her, those were the best day’s of my life. Barbara was a loving wonderful sister, I will always cherish my memories of her.

Working with Barb was wonderful! She sat right next to me –so many good laughs. She always took excellent care of us & the patients. She was smart, flexible and on top of the details. Missing her

I have many memories to share of Jillianâ€™s mom, Barbara. My favorite were always in the kitchen with her and Jillian when we were kids and then watching some new Julia Roberts movie. She inspired me to finish college at a later age in life while my kids were in high school. My family loves her pecan pie recipe, it will continue in our family for generations. She was a gift to us all and will be missed. Sending so much love to Jillian, Max, and Justin, and the rest of her surviving family. ðŸ’–

Summer Bbqs I remember Aunt Barbra in the kitchen with my mom (Lisa) and aunt Susan. Doing up the dishes, turning her head away when I come in to take photos. She didn’t like her photo took. I did sneak a few photos in here and there though. Very clean and Smart. Alot like my mother quite and liked to read. Will be missed mostly around holidays â™¡~Amber Kay~

Sometimes the best way to remember a loved one is with the promise of new life, especially new life as enduring as a tree. Sending our prayers and love.. Love you guys.

I am so sorry to hear of Barbâ€™s passing. She was more than a â€˜surgery schedulerâ€™ for me – she was a colleague and an advocate. The bright spot in my week would often be when she came to my office at lunch time to discuss cases and afterwards weâ€™d then spent a little time talking about life, aging parents and whatever. Iâ€™m sure she is missed terribly, and I hope that your memories of her will bring you some comfort during this time.
