Bruce and Linda ,I didnt know Elaine had passed and was wondering what happened to Barb, I was actually trying to find out where she was because I had seen both Elaine and Barb at Wal-Mart months ago and said hi to both of them as I always did but neither of them said hi back so I knew something was wrong.Then my daughter called me and told me Barb had passed . I send my condolances to both you and Bruce. I always saw both of them together shopping at Wal-mart and we always had a small conversation.

Bruce and Linda, I am so sorry to learn of Barb's passing. She was always smiling when I saw her at McDonalds. Always had a friendly word. Prayers for all the family.

I spent many of many younger years working the drive-thru at McDonald's with Barb. She was the BEST co-worker and we made such a great team. Many laughs, jokes and advise made me value our friendship so much. She even came to my baby shower years after I had switched employers. She was the sweetest person you'd ever meet, and I am sending my thoughts and prayers to all her family.
