I was fortunate enough to work with Barb at Standard Federal. I also lived in the same apartment complex she & Bill lived & Barb’s sweet mom. She was always helping people and of course always smiling, walking everyday, and eating yogurt. If it wasn’t for Barb and Bill, I would not have meet my husband. Unfortunately, we lost touch but she was always in my thoughts. I know her family will miss her. She was always family orientated. So sorry for all her family, she was a great person!
What a sweet lady! I ran into her a few times at Walgreen’s.My condolences to Mike, Mary, et. al.
