I thank GOD that I had Barbara in my life. I know my life was enriched by just knowing her. I have never met anyone with such a positive outlook on life and God. I will miss her at the tape counter at church but I am so happy that she had now seen her Savior FACE TO FACE.

My prayers are with all of you. It was my privilige to meet Barbara at a salad supper at Word of Life Church. She spoke very highly of her family. Please remember that through this time God will provide you with His strength and His unconditional love.
