Dear Walsh Family:

It is with heartfelt sorrow that I read the obituary this morning. My condolences and sympathy for your Dear Beloved family. I knew Dear Barbara through work for many years. She was always kind and jovial. Her professionalism and loyalty at Homeland Security was unquestionable. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her. We spend sad moments, good times laughing at each others jokes, and complaining about how much we disliked our job assignments, talking about our family. But at the end Barbara would always have something comforting to say, "Hang in there Kiddo". It was a pleasure working with Barbara. My love and respects to the Walsh Family.
