To all Barb's family, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Your Mom was a classmate and a special friend all through high school. She lived not too far and we often walked home together. Our husbands worked together for many years. When we retired and left LeMars, on visits we would always stop to visit and have coffee, while we caught up.One of you brought her to see me here in Texas, thank you for your faithfulness in seeing to her needs. I talked to her on the phone periodically, and had no idea she was failing in health. It was a shock to see the notice. I should have called more often. My memories of time with her are fresh like yesterday. May your faith sustain you and her memories keep her with you always, until that day when you will once again be a family together. God bless.
