Dear Chuck, Jim, Jeff, and Karen,
Mom was the greatest and I will miss her dearly. I take great comfort in knowing that she is back to partying and dancing with your Dad now. She has a very special place in my heart and always will. You four were her pride and joy and she was so very proud of all of you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your very special families. Love, “Barbie”
