I just seen my “grandmother’s” obituary and noticed that her 4 first born children were not mentioned ( Margie, Patty, Rick and Donna) as well as her 12 grandchildren, 17 great great grandchildren and 3 great great great grandchildren.

Dear Kerry and family, First I want to express just how sorry I am to hear of Barb’s passing. She certainly put her stamp on life and will surely be missed immensely. She was always so welcoming to everyone. When she would see you, her smile and her embrace would make you feel like one of the family! Something that always stood out to me, was how no matter the how many people were at a gathering, she would be sure to listen to the grandchildren and let them know that they were just as important as the adults. Barb was always up for an adventure and would add another level of fun to our girl trips with Kerry and her sisters...and she could keep up with us till the wee hours...imagine! It was a Blessing to have known her, thank you for sharing her with us ❤️ Lots of Love and prayers to you all. Love Lisa xo

To Barb & all of your family, My thoughts are with you Barb, and the family, today, as the celebration of life service, is held in memory of your Mom. Even though we never met in person, I remember our brief conversation we had last November, so we could get in contact with you for your retirement dinner.

Hi Barb, So sorry to hear about your Mother. She was always so friendly and nice. I really enjoyed knowing her both at the church and outside. She seemed so healthy the last time we saw her at Lake last year. I'm sure you will miss her very much. Think of you fondly often - I was just looking at Leanne and Rebecca's baby picture the other day. God Bless!

To me Nan was always so wise. She was a strong guiding force in my life when I was young and took care of me sometimes when Mom and Dad were working. I learned many things from her about how the world works during our day trips to the nature park and our living room movie camp-outs. She always cared for me even when we hadn't talked for long periods of time, and was always ready to have a long catch up over the phone. I will miss you Nan, and I know that just like our extended absences in the past, we always reunite down the road. You have made such a positive impact on your friends, family, and the world. You will remain in our hearts forever.

Please accept my very sincere condolences on Barb’s passing. Over the past couple of years Barb and I were partners playing 45’s at the Assumption Center on Sunday afternoons. She was a brave bidder and we always had a lot of fun. Sometimes Barb loved to risk it all at the end of the afternoon and once we even won!! We laughed for weeks over that one. I am very sorry you have lost a lovely mother and grandmother in Barb.
