Charmaine and Shawn, I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Barbara was part of my world for about 20 years. She was loyal and dependable. She so loved her cats and going to the movies and most of all you girls and her grandsons. She will be missed by many. Lee Queen

Barbara was a beautiful person. I am lucky to have had her in my life. We worked together years ago then stayed in touch over the years with birthday lunches and the like. She was truly a crazy cat lady with a generous heart. She will be missed.

Barbara managed the building where I got my real start. She was kind and compassionate. I owe so much to her. I'm shocked to hear of her passing. Hugs to her girls - she spoke of you two so often.

Barbara was the soul of generosity. We worked together many years and our friendship endured long after our work years. My world is a little different without her in it.

Barb was one of my oldest and dearest friends. With all of the friends she had, she was always there when I needed her. She even let me share her home for a time. I know she's got a spot in heaven. Love you my friend.
