I was a neighbor of “Miss Barbara’s” and a fellow dog walker, which is how we met. I looked forward to seeing her and her dog, Duke, while walking mine. We always stopped and chatted and tried to get our dogs acquainted. My dog is not fond of other dogs to put it mildly but we made progress over the years. She was a sweet and kind lady and I miss seeing her very much. Rest in peace Miss Barbara.

Hugh and Leigh ,
I’m so very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. She has been a part of my life for a long time. I have enjoyed visits with her when I was back in Mobile and phone calls with her from time to time. She was a wonderful friend to my mother and I greatly appreciate that. Miss Barbara was a true Southern lady.  Mobile has lost an incredible artist.  I will miss her.   Melinda Benson

I will  miss seeing you and Duke gently strolling on your afternoon walks in the neighborhood . We had so much fun sipping wine together on my front porch and at Dauphin Island. You were a wonderful friend and I will miss you terribly. 
   May perpetual light shine upon your face and May God grant you eternal rest , let the gates of heaven open widely to welcome you home  my sweet Barbara.
