I cannot say how deeply sorry and sad I am to have found out that my dear friend has passed away. Barbara was the person I trusted most in my life. She was always there for me and my family. I am so sorry that I had not known of her passing so that I could have been there to comfort her family and express my feelings for such a wonderful friend. God must have needed a excellent accountant and a person with a big heart to call Barbara home where she will no longer suffer from any illness. I will miss you my dear friend. Jeri Orth
