Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • I met Barb through scrapbooking many years ago. I nicknamed her Old Woman because of her indefatigable attitude and it stuck for our entire relationship. Barb was singular in the love and dedication she had for her family. We found out that her son Denis and my husband Dennis were on GD6 at the same time with leukemia. It bonded us as soulmates and we had that unbreakable connection forever. I will miss her crotchety old woman personality forever. Much love to Tony and her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. - Posted by: Patrice Skovgaard (Friend ) on: Aug 27, 2023

  • We have far too many happy and fond memories of Barb to write them down. We will never forget her caring and her great sense of humour. With our deepest sympathy and much love to Tony, Sue, Monique, Bernie and Mark plus all the grandkids.

  • Barb will be sadly missed. I remember all the times when I was able to babysit all my younger cousins at their house growing up. Ray and I enjoyed all the times we were all able to get together and celebrate as family for the memorable occasions we all had in the past. She was a warm and friendly person and enjoyed a good party with everyone. Our deepest condolences go out to Tony and all the family.
