I was so sorry to hear about Barb's passing, but glad that I had had a nice talk with her after Christmas, when she was becoming accustomed to her new surroundings at Wyndham. Sadly, I intended to call her again, thinking, if she was able, we'd go out to lunch with some former high school friends - this never happened. Barb was my maid of honor when I married my husband, Vic. We just celebrated our 55th anniversary, and during our young married years, would visit back and forth with Hal and Barb. Our condolences to her daughters and grandchildren. We are so sorry for your loss.
