Barbara McDowell Obituary

Dear Max, Jean and Tricia,

I am sorry this is so late, but I just read it this morning.

I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. You have my deepest sympathies. . . Lorine Anderson-Chmielewski

Dear JeanAnn, Max, and Trisha,
I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I have such wonderful memories of our childhood and your mom was a big part of that. I know there are no words that can ease your pain, but please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Maxie Jean Ann and Tricia
So sorry to hear of your moms passing. Will always remember her beautiful gardens. And the time she caught my trying to swipe a little oak tree on the edge of your yard. She very kindly told me that it belonged there. And Maxie I remember the hours and hours we used to play Monopoly. My sincerest prayers at your time of loss.
If you would like to get in touch my email address it [email protected]
Love and prayers
Al Perren

My family and I are so sad to learn of Barb's passing. I have been wondering about her well being for a while now.Our children grew up together and we all loved you Barb. You made all of my daughter Lori's prom and homecoming dresses and she always looked so beautiful in them. You taught me how to sew many years ago. Your wonderful home made pies that my son still talks about and your home made taffy apples were the best.I remember how hard you worked in your garden and how proud you were of it.I have wonderful memory's of your sewing room and all the chat's we had in there.I remember when Max bought his sport's car and the cap he brought to wear when he was driving it. I can still see your wonderful smile. I just found out about your passing and won't make the memorial tomorrow but I will be with you in love and prayer. Tomorrow is my husband Don's birthday maybe you will be at his party in heaven. I love you my friend and thanks for sharing your life with me and my family. I know you are in the arms of the angels and once again with Max your loving husband.

I am saddened to learn of Barbara's passing. She was extremely important to the Lemont Grade School Band. She was one of the first Presidents of The Lemont Band Boosters. All three of her children were members in both the Grade and High School Bands.
I also remember she made a pan of cinn. rolls for me, they were fantastic. Best I ever had. Rest in Peace Barbara.
