Barb was very clear-no mourning. She wants a party where people will listen to great music (Elvis, Johnny Cash, and lots of classic country!), share lots of stories, and eat great food that her kids are not allowed to make. So because we know she will haunt us if we do not follow orders, we will have a party, a Celebration of Life, for mom on March 25, 2023 in Tallahassee, FL. We wanted to give lots of time for out of town loved ones and friends to make arrangements to join us with the favorite Barb stories.

Barb was also a devout Catholic, and we would like to encourage anyone who has a faith tradition to attend a service and be thankful for your experiences with Barb and to give thanks for all of the loved ones in your lives. Tom, Tanya, Chris, and their spouses/children will attend a mass said for her at her local church.
