? Barb was my coworker and my friend. She loved my kids , and wile I was pregnant with my second boy , she wouldn't leave work until she knew I was safe and on my way home. She was a true animal lover , and every pet the that was in her care as a dog groomer was considered and appreciated , and taken care of, especially if they were older and had special needs. Many many people loved her , and knew how lucky they were to be near her. She was a person of good nature and humor with a giant heart that God blessed all those around her with. I had so much fun at her home one Christmas Eve , and will never forget the decorations! It makes me sad that this world is lacking in her type of person now days.She was definitely from a better era, where people took care of , and considered one another. For all of us who knew her , we know we were lucky. Having two sons my self , I hope I can guide my children to grow up to be as wonderful as her boys. Living their lives to the fullest , and doing what they love. I hope that as long as I love my work like she did , I will set that example, and encourage them to push themselves hard , to reach the star's. Good bye Barb , I learned about life from you , I wish so badly that you were still with us, it was a pleasure to work with you , and be your friend! ?
