Sorry for your loss. Barb was our underwriter. She was always so patient and kind when I first started, it was very nice to talk to her. Praying that you will feel the presence of the Lord Jesus and know that He is with you always.

To Vern and Barb’s family — my deepest sympathy. I was one of Barb’s COT buddies…friends since we met in the year 2000. She had a beautiful way about her — she always looked great — dressed professionally, gorgeous nails. She loved Vern, her Infinity car, the cats and landscaping. We had so many good times — Atlanta for a week, laughing in motel rooms, drinking wine…..tonight we toast to Barb…may she rest peacefully with the Lord.
Vern and Family, I am another of Barb’s COT buddies from the old FSA days. Barb, Cindy, Joe and I were inseperable and everyone always said we were joined at the hip….Joe even started to follow us into the women’s restroom one time when we were in the middle of a deep conversation. Yes, as Cindy mentioned, we knew the loves of her life, I admired her so and have such a heavy heart knowing she is gone from us. “We can shed tears that she is gone or smile because she has lived”. Last night, as agreed with my other COT buddies, we each had a glass of wine in her honor and I smiled because I knew her, she made my life better by knowing her, she will be missed. It is so tough, may you all find peace with your memories…..
To All of Barb’s wonderful family– I worked with Barb at ADM CRS for 3 years and I cannot even imagine my life without her! We became instant lifelong friends and I loved being with her. She made my life so much better by just being there. I will miss her terribly and there is a void at work now that can never be filled, but I know that we will always remember her. I will always think of her whenever I hug my two cats, and I know she will be there in spirit hugging hers.
Very sorry your loss, our sympathies are with you. Make sure to let us know if we can do anything to help going forward, we are just a short walk down the street.
So sorry Verne to hear about Barb.She was such a nice lady.
