Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I have many fond memories of my Aunt Barbara. She was spunky, kind, a bit stubborn, funny, sweet, affectionate, had an awesome laugh, and always had a good story to tell. She was a good cook and baked great pies, especially apple. I think she was the only sister who would or could bake from scratch. Aunt Barbara's recipe for keeping fit was every time she picked up something from the floor, she would "swoop and scoop". She was full of energy and never sat still, which I know she inherited from Nana. Her health was always excellent. She would tease her sister, my mother, Yvonne, that she still had all her teeth and could hear without the assistance of a hearing aide well into her 90s. I would often comment to my mother that I hope to have Aunt Barbara's genes. When my nephew, Michael, got married over 10 years ago, my husband Pete and I stayed with her when traveling from Tennessee. She was always the consummate hostess, even in her late 80s. One memory I have of that time was whenever I entered her kitchen I noticed a gas smell. I commented about it and she pointed to her dog and said, "Well, he is fine." I immediately laughed out loud, because she compared her dog to a canary in a mine. I will miss you, Aunt Barbara. May God bless you in Heaven. Please give my mom, Aunt Thelma, Uncle Paul, and Nana hugs and kisses from Pete and me. Lovingly, Janis and Pete

A beautiful tribute to a beautiful Aunt who did so much for so many. God Bless both Aunt Barbara and Uncle Ed
