I always considered Barbara as my "sister". She was kind, loving, and a true friend. We had such fun with her and Ed when they spent time with us in Arizona. A time I will always remember. May you rest in peace, dear sister, I will love you and miss you always.

To Uncle Ed, Kalyna and Sandi, so sorry to hear of Aunt Barbara’s passing. She was courageous in her battle and showed who was boss! I remember the visits in Calabogie, she was a special person. I’m sure she is enjoying reuniting with her brothers.

Barb was a very loving, caring and gentle person. She was a beautiful soul! We worked together for many years and had a great rapport. We also did an afternoon of Christmas baking (dear Ed made sure we had gin and tonics to motivate us)! After the bake fest, our friend Denise would bring dinner over, along with her husband, Roy, and my husband, Bob. We had a jolly time - never to be forgotten. Gone but never forgotten. RIP dear friend.

Sending hugs to my cousins Kalyna and Sandi and Uncle Ed. I have many fond memories of Auntie Barb and family visits in Calabogie! Had many high school teachers call be Barb over the years as well which was such a compliment as she was so fondly remembered by them.

We’ll miss Barb dearly, and cherish the heart warming memories. Especially her warmth and giving as she was there nearly daily with Ella, Mackenzie and Griffin, being such an amazing grandmother.

Dearest Sandi, Kalyna, Ed and Ian, Barb was the kindest, most welcoming person I have ever known. She and Ed welcomed Bill and I into their home and into their lives. I know how much she doted on her children and grandchildren. She was an inspiration to me with her fitness regime, too. She will always be a fond memory for me.
