Aunt Barbara,
You will be missed very much! I have so many wonderful memories of visiting you and Uncle Gerald when I was a little girl and eating vanilla ice cream with you both. Mark, Jared, Danielle and myself always enjoyed our visits with you and Uncle Gerald listening to you both speak about your treasures/antiques and the history about them. Most of all, I will miss our Monday phone calls over the pass 5 years chatting about everything ?. You are loved very much and now you will be with your Gerry ♥️ Love, Tracy, Mark, Jared and Danielle

Hi Barbara, hoping you can rest in peace now with Gerald. You were a great neighbor and a good friend to my Mom, and a friend to me as well. I enjoyed our chats on the phone the past few years, checking up on each other. I especially loved the chats over the fence for fifty years. Thank you for letting the kids come and see the yard and the house. Was very kind of you to share. Rest in Peace, Love Tracey

I have such beautiful memories of you and Gerry being married in Radburn. We talked a lot about how you treasured the pictures of that fabulous day! You loved each other so much, right up to time when you both left the planet. I’m sure you’re together again, where you belong. Rest in peace, dear Barbara.
Love, Marjorie
