Barbara was the greatest “Prayer Warrior” we have ever known. Over 100 people were prayed for “BY NAME” every day by Barbara. She was very devoted to our Lord and our Lady praying several Rosaries daily including at nursing homes where she would pray with the residents. Barbara was very active in the Pro-Life Movement for many, many years doing sidewalk counseling. Family was everything to Barbara, always enjoying a noise filled house full of children and friends. Barbara loved to travel, driving back and forth to Tennessee and Florida on a moment’s notice several times a year. Barbara was a member and attended Mass weekly with her dear friend Mary Nagle at Our Lady of Mt Carmel traditional Roman Catholic Church in Salem NH. She will be Greatly missed. Such an Apostolic Soul. A great example in so many ways. Please remember her soul and also her family at this time of mourning.
