Barb's greatest treasure was her family and the time spent with them, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren was what she loved the most. She will be dearly missed.

Barb and I were cousins, but we didn’t officially meet until Jr High……her spirit mentored me. After highschool we were ‘roomies’ for a short time until she decided that she needed to be with George back in Nashua….and I don’t think she ever looked back. Barb just loved everyone and everyone loved her back. Rest in Peace, beautiful lady.. I know you are with your Jesus. Verna Baldwin Rankin

I will miss a very dear friend and co-worker that I have had the pleasure of knowing for many years. She was always so upbeat and happy.That smile was just naturally there for anyone. We rode to work together for many years..Lots of good chats coming and going….After the plant closed we have gone together to lots of things related to friends we used to work with. Graduations, weddings and I am sorry to say, some funerals also…She will be missed by so many people and my heart goes out to all of the family…She thought the world of all of you kids and grandskids..but you already know that…she showed you always…I will miss her popping in once in awhile on her way to Dawns…was always a nice surprise and can see her now, smiling on her way to the door…Love her and will always see that happy person…God did good when he made that little bundle of joy..Know that she was liked and loved by so many… Lorilee and family

Tom, Shelley and family so sorry for your loss. I will always remember seeing Barb with a smile on her face and something to say! She will be greatly missed.
Leland and I have so many memories. We always said we were double cousins, Mothers being sisters and Dads being brothers. We grew up together back in the good ole days. Leland was a class member of Barb, they graduated together and she always had a big hug for him. We were planning a get together to go to George’s and my class reunion. We didn’t see each other all the time but was like nothing ever changed when we got together. We loved her very much and know she is in heaven with Mom, Dad, Donnie and my dear Mother. We will miss her.
I didn’t know her well but she knew me better than I could have known her . My memory of her is all good. We are all sad because I always thought we would cross paths again in this life ………..now we gotta wait. GOD BLESS HER ! ?
