I am from Ottawa Canada. My partner Vic and I bought a house from Russel and Barbara in Port Charlotte FL. in 1990. We became friends almost immediately. Barbara and Russ finally built a house in the lot next to us and Barbara and I spent most of our days together decorating some of the model houses they had built. Barbara was like a sister to me. She and Russ would drive to our home in Canada and we would always go fishing, play cards and just have the most memorable times together. We both loved animals. We had two cats and they had wo cats. She was truly always there as a faithful friend, to help or support and console you in need. As the years past, I knew that she was very ill, and keep in contact with her until her niece brought her to New Hampshire two years ago. From that time on, I didn't have any news about her wellbeing.
I only discovered about her death today,Jan.12,2021.
I will truly miss my friend and hearing her voice over the phone.
I know you are with the angles in heaven, because you were a angel on earth.
 

Such a loss. You'll be missed by many "Aunt Barb". I'm thankful for the times I was able to enjoy your company. I'll miss you

Barbara was a great person she loved all of her nieces and nephews, if she was your friend she was your true friend! She helped any one who needed! She will be missed by all, Barbara, was my friend, my sister, and my sister in-law. I have enjoyed knowing her since I was 15 years old (and that is a while ago!) We both have had Many wonderful years together! I loved her so much! I will miss her for the rest of my life! GOD bless you Barb! Rest In Peace! Love you, Nancy Evans

Barbara My Friend
I met my friend 15 yrs ago, we had both lost our husbands a few months apart. She was their for me and I for her. Together for formed a beautiful friendship that i will forever hold close to my heart. Barbara loved people, she was so giving of herself, anyone needed something she went running to help. i remember all the good times we shared like, swimming in the pool at 5pm each night, bike rides around the park and just sharing stories of each others life and family. I miss her each day but so greatful we got to met.
Love Doris Grier
When I think of Barbara I think of amazing, caring, kind and giving. Truly someone so special. For sure Heaven did get another Angel the day she left us. Spread those wings Barbara and remember we love you!
Love Lori Grier

We met your Aunt briefly but we know from the love you had for her that she was one very special person. Our deepest sympathies to you and yours.
Remember all the happy times and celebrate the life you had with her. We are very sorry for your loss.

Barbara will be remembered with a smile on her face, her pressed and creased jeans with the white shirt. Hair always done very nicely, her earrings, blue fingers, which we always compared. Nothing but the fondest of memories of Barb.

I will miss everything about my Aunt Barb. She was more than an aunt. She was another mother and best friend. I will miss the kayaking down the Weeki Wachee, walks on the beaches and many more of the things she enjoyed doing with me. Most of all I will miss her hugs and kisses. The next time I have my coffee on the beach I know she will still be sitting beside me waiting for the dolphins to swim by. I love you Aunt Barb.

Rest in peace, Barbara. We will miss you.

Barbara was a very sweet person, beautiful inside and out. She will be missed by many. Fly with the angels Barb, and rest easy

We will miss Barbara so much around here at Windward Village. May she rest in peace

Lots of thoughts,but not the words to express our sorrow of Aunts Barbs passing.Always a highlight seeing her at the family reunion.When Ma and Dad were alive,hearing from them of her visits to them.Our paths didn't cross very often,but when they did it was always wonderful.
