Barbara was a classmate in school and we all loved her. She had such a sweet and gentle personality.
I must admit like many teenage lads we all at some time had a crush on Barbara.
A life well lived
My condolences to the family from Rod Mclean
Barbara worked with me from 1982 when we opened the Medical office until 2006 when I retired—I could not have wished for a more sympathetic, efficient and friendly nurse—she made my work so much more pleasant.
Sincere condolences to the family from Ken and Philomena McNeilly.
