We were so glad when she and Neil reunited. They were a perfect couple and it was so good to see Neil this happy.
The first time I met Barbara, I felt like I’d known her forever. She opened her arms lovingly and was always that fun-loving, kind person. Although she had three lovely sisters of her own, I used to tease her and say well. Tell them they’ve got another one because she was like a sister to me in many ways.
I am going to miss my dear friend, but I believe she’s sitting on Neil’s sailboat, beaming that gorgeous big smile ❤️❤️
