I ran into Barb’s sister Susie today after 40 years and was so saddened to hear Barb had passed. I was best friends with her sister Darlene as a young girl and Barb was like an older sister to me. Barb always had my back and i always felt safe while she was near. She had such a strong spirit and outgoing personality. I will always be thankful to the whole Normand family for treating me like family. Rest in peace Barb.
Barbi Doll you were a tough old bird. I loved you. Street family – mom. I’ll see you in the next life. Peace. You’re no longer suffering. I am glad I got to know you. I lost touch in the end. I didn’t know you had cancer. I wish I knew. I Saw your story in the newspaper that’s how I found out you passed. Good bye Barbi Doll.
You will be missed dearly Aunty Barb, not a moment goes by I don’t wish we could have spent more time together throughout the years. Your travels through life have tought the younger generation more than you could ever imagine, although its been a many years since I saw you in person – I will always remember the laughter and fun growing up, and I will forever be an advocate for your ” don’t take no shit from anyone” attitude. You were one tough cookie, and I bid you a goodbye until we meet again.
Wow I’ve missed Barb for a while now and been thinking about her all this month…weird,, but I loved her dearly and the family too,,,miss you sis….you rock, never forget your rants!!!
