    I am so sorry for your loss. Barb was a wonderful lady. I had the pleasure of spending a lot of time with her when I worked at Wesley Manor. Her family meant the world to her. We talked of all of you every time we visited. She will always hold a very special place in my heart. God Bless each of you.

    I’m sure you will miss Barbara. She and Paul were wonderful neighbors and friends when we lived on Forest Dr. Barbara and I seemed to have a lot in common when we talked about our times growing up on the farm. Thinking of the Larson family, especially those little Larson kids at Rossville, but my guess is they’re not so little any more! Good memories of Barbara! ❤️
