Barbara was my cousin. I wish we´d seen more of each other as kids so I would have known her better. I know she was a really good mother and wife. The world was a better place because she lived in it. Miss you, Barbara!

Bobby, I don´t know if you will receive this or not. I was interested in talking to Barbara Ann and so sent an email. When it didn´t go through I searched for an obituary and found this. I´m so sorry to hear that she has died - and over two years ago. I totally lost track of her. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
