Nana, you were here for us when we were little and as we grew we would visit you. You loved to take us to the parks and the beach and to museums and zoos and everything in between. You loved to have bon fires and look up at the stars with us. Now, we look up to the sky to see you and will meet you again one day. You are in our hearts and we thank you for showing us the way. We will send balloons to you because we miss you, we will send them when we celebrate and we will send them 'just because' we know you are watching over us. You are Forever in our Hearts Nana.

Nana will be forever loved and missed

Barb was always passionate about caring for the needs of all around her. I will never forget the love she gave me and my family during a difficult time. A part of her will always be in my heart. We have all been blessed to have known her.

To a soul that shined in life as she will in heaven..you will be missed and never forgotten

I'm very sorry for your loss! she was a wonderful caring mother & woman! She will be missed

Barb was a WONDERFUL person. No matter what was going on in the house or in her life, I never saw her without a smile. She had a way to find the good in everyone and everything. Her memory will live on in all of those that were blessed enough to know her.

A loving mother, devoted wife and wonderful caring Nana.

Tom, my deepest symppathy on the passing of Barb my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family

Always loved, never forgotten.

Barbara, we light this candle for you to show what a light you are to all of us. You have touched many people's lives in so many ways. Your light will continue to shine in our hearts forever. RIP Beautiful Lady! Thoughts and prayers are with you Tommy, Tom Jr, Lou, Ken and Mandi! May you find peace in all the memories and her footprints she has left on all she came in contact with. Love you all!! Bud, Sandy, Jim & Grace

She was a special light for us all.

My mother loved the little children. One of my many favorite memories of her was not only listening, but watching her tell stories of made up creatures while the child looked on in anticipation for the creature or waited for the finale- which always had a sequel. I will forever cherish our bond and you will not be forgotten in the generations to come. <3

To Barb's Family, I am so very sorry for your loss! Barb devoted her life to her family, you were her whole world. She never in all the years I new her, never ever one negative word was said, only happiness and love of her family. It is good to know people like Barb exist, and she will continue to watch over all of you and she will never cease to send you love from above. God Bless You All. Vera
