Barb, 

I’m so grateful to have called you my friend.   Your humor, advice, and beautiful heart will be so missed!  I’m so thankful that I was able to be a part of your life for nearly 25 years.  Thank you for showing me how wonderful life can be when you marry your best friend!  You so loved being a mom to Sam and it showed in everything you did. Family was everything to you and you were everything to them. I love you Barb!  Keep watching over us all until we meet again. Rest in a Paradise, my beautiful friend 💕

Barbara Jean always had a smile. I will miss her so much I love you.

We had such a blast this evening, you brought your photobooth and we were having too much fun dressing it up and laughing together. I’ll cherish these moments forever Barb. Thank you for always being there for me and my little family. As you’d always say…Love you my friend
