Dear Mike, Laura & Ronald:  I was so saddened to read of Barbara’s passing.  It has been a great honor and privilege to have known her in this life, in my young adulthood years and to have our paths cross again recently.  I smile when I think of our last conversation on all things deep, life, heaven and the Lord.  I am grateful to have been able to tell her what a well of wisdom she was and the peaceful aura that radiated from her to all who met her.  My heart breaks for your loss.  No words can possibly take away the pain.  I pray you feel the palpable presence of God, love and the angels embrace each of you now and every day forward.  Barbara’s light shines even brighter now, illuminating your path with love and light.  She deeply loved each of you and was so very proud of her loved ones. Love & Peace, Rachel

Praying for you all. Barbara was a good person and loving mother. I remember how much she loved Laura and wanted the best for her. I never met Ronald but I know she loved you too. It was fun to share friends with her in Greenbrook, NJ.

    I was so sorry to hear of Barbara’s illness when I spoke to her last and have been in prayer for her since then.  We had been good friends for many years and I know her desire was to be at home with Jesus.   I’m sure she is resting in peace now.
My condolences to Mike, Laura and the rest of her family. See you later Barbara.💖
