Unbelievable! I just called today and left a message for Barb. She told me she had health issues and would be away a couple months ago, but this a shock. Barb was my first love just after senior year at LT. We had a torrid, but brief, fling; and she broke my heart. I've loved her ever since. We were close, and stayed in touch through the decades by phone and e-mail. she was funny, sassy, and a treat to be around, and I really miss her.
Mea Aloha Barb!
