I met Barb when she lived on Clark Street. Later, we organized a card night, and Barb was not only on time, but she was also always EARLY!!!!
She had a delightful sense of humor, and we enjoyed many evenings together.

I worked at Clearview with Barb. What a lady, and a blast as a co-worker. We worked pms on 3B. I think i brought out the kid in her. We had numerous water fights, yes, your mother and Tom Guptill myself, we included the residents also. They had a blast also.
I remember the day she came to work and shared the story on how Brandon i (hope i got that right), applied for a credit card... AND GOT APPROVED... Oh, how we all laughed.. She had to act mad when at home, but she laughed... Lots of precious stories. Worked with Kain also. Barb was allot more fun.. Life is so short, live it with fun.. I'll leave you with 1 last story. During one of our water fights Barb got a paper plate, put shaving cream and baby powder on top then placed it on top of my head... Then a residents parents walked in... They laughed also.. SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, WE WORKED HARD, HAD FUN,. LIKE I SAID LIFE IS SHORT... PS. I'M STILL AT CLEARVIEW, ALMOST 37 YEARS. HUGS TO ALL..

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

My sympathies to all the family. We didn't see each other often, but it was always fun to talk with her.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
