To Barb's sisters and family, Barb has been in my thoughts and prayers this entire year. I wish I could have been at her memorial last year but was actually in Colorado at the time. Since I live in Maryland, I would like to visit her resting place at some point. If you are inclined to send me that information, you can do so via email. God bless you all and I know Barb sends all her friends and family heavenly hugs. And, I am still tracking down some of our hiking pictures if you would like copies eventually.
Barb, Kiera and Sydney on one of her visits to Pa. I found this photo in an old email to Barb. I can’t believe it’s been a year since your gone. We love u Barb!
It's been 6 months since Barb left us and I am still in shock and mourning about her passing. We were friends for almost 30 years here in Colorado, with us commiserating and consoling each other through the ebbs and flows of our professional and personal lives.
I think about her often and pray every day that she found the peace and serenity I thought she deserved; and regret not being there for her during her last moments. I love and miss you, dear, and look forward to seeing you soon.
I'm broken hearted and haven't been able to sleep over this. One of our three musketeers finished her race and made it to heaven. I miss you Barb. You were one of the greatest joys in my life. You got me through the worst time of my life. You meant so much to me and I wish we could have had many more years to see many more good times, but I'm so grateful to God that He let me know you for the time He did. He knew I needed you. My friend asked me what you thought of me and there's no hesistation that you loved me and I loved you. I miss you sister. I can't wait to see you again. I love you Barb and I always will.
So sorry to hear this..Barb was one of my best friends growing up...I always knew she would be something special..so smart..I wish I would have been able to connect with her but never could find her ..Rest in Peace Barb..
Barb was a great hiking buddy along with Ziggy, her dog. I remember Ziggy chasing a deer once that was his size. I'm glad I made one of the hiking photos. Barb had a compassionate way of viewing events and keeping inspired and optimistic. She also had a great sense of humor. Barb, you'll be missed as I think of you along the trails I now Ebike. You will be remembered well!
Barb and I reconnected Aug 2020 after losing touch after the Black Forest fire and the loss of her home. We had emails and phone conversations before I saw Barb on a trip back to Colorado Springs in Nov 2020, and it was like we were never apart. We hiked with Ziggy and caught up on our lives. Because I now live about 2 hours from Philly, we had planned to meet up when she was back here visiting her Mom sometime soon. We met at EDS in the early 2000s. One of our first friend outings was an Avalanche/Flyers game at Pepsi Center... it was so fun! We hiked a lot back in the day.... Rainbow Falls, RMNP, Breckenridge, The Incline/Barr Trail, Palmer Park (a lot at Palmer Park!). She also recruited me into Samaritans Purse after the Waldo Canyon Fire to help victims in the Mountain Shadows neighborhood, what a moving experience! I am so sad that she is gone and believe in my heart she is in Heaven with the Lord and her other dogs, especially Max.
