    A very beautiful, real person. Words can’t get close.

    Shocked to see that she is no longer on this earth with us. Can’t find the words, because none can suffice. Be kind to yourselves. Treasure the time that you had.

    Barb had the greatest smile, from inside out, it was a soul smile; and she shared it generously.
    Love to Maya and all the extended family.

    Marsha, Craig and Steve, I’m so sorry to hear of Barb’s loss. Although Barb and I lost touch after those years in the neighborhood, I’ve always remembered her as the older sister I never had. She and I were friends mostly due to our homes’ proximity and her open heart. The last time I saw her was at your mom’s funeral but she’s always had a special place in my heart–all those nights under the streetlights just hanging out. I’m so sorry the news didn’t reach me soon enough to give you my condolences in person.
