A skilled seamstress, home decorator, baker and cook, Barbara was a diligent and reliable worker who loved her job and the people she worked with. She was a dedicated wife, mother and grandmother to her family, always providing a warm and inviting home whenever there was a visit. No matter what the holiday, Barbara took pride in decorating her home so that her family would enjoy their visits even more. Barbara showed a genuine interest in others and gave pep talks when needed. As a dedicated dental assistant, Barbara was always there to put her patients at ease with a kind word or a hand on their shoulder.
"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love".
