My thoughts and prayers are with you, as they were with Barb during her illness. I worked with Barb at the JMU Health Center. In her I found a grand friend, a dedicated nurse, and another animal lover. She will be greatly missed. It is, however, a blessing to have the memory of her friendship and great courage to carry us on. With deepest respect and God's Blessing, Charlotte Charlotte Huffman 2010-02-22 05:19:56

Deepest Sympathy I am so sorry to hear of Barbara's passing. We went to school together, so it's been many, many years since we had seen each other. I remember what a nice person she was and a pleasure to be around, I remember her vividly. I hope you find comfort and love from your friends and family, to help you through this difficult time. My deepest sympathy to you. Sue Susan O'Donnell Shull 2010-02-24 05:08:57
