Barbara, I have enjoyed sharing laughter, joy, tears and a bit of mischief with you all these years. You have impacted countless young people, including my own girls, who always have a funny or touching story about your religion classes. We all admire your strength, spirit, loving nature and example of steadfast faith in the face of adversity. May God surround your family with comfort and lasting memories of such a beautiful Barb who made it no secret how much she fiercely loved you all.

Aunt Barbara Lee, Thank you for being such a light & joy in my life all through my life from my infancy to now. You have always been a positive influence in my life, believing in me when I didn't even believe in myself. Thank you for being an example of Jesus' love as in I Corinthians 13:1-8. I think you knew you were my hero because I would tell you-but you wouldn't believe it! Thank you for being you-a wonderful, beautiful, fun, funny, loving, unforgettable, gracious, giving woman with an amazing capacity to love & share the love of Christ with others. YOU WILL be remembered! YOU MADE A DIFFERENCE !!! Not only in my life but in the lives of so many others & l am so deeply grateful. I will miss you for the rest of my life here on earth & look forward to seeing you in heaven. Love always, Bobbie Rena' (your favorite Neice-lol)
