Barbara lived a full life as a wonderful wife, mother, homemaker and manager in the textile sector. She was a dedicated mama first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She adored her role as Nana. Her grand and great grandchildren were her pride and joy. She loved to cook, kept an immaculate house, loved to sew and care for her flower and vegetable gardens.
Our mama was the strongest woman you ever had the pleasure to meet. She had a vivacious personality and always made people around her feel special. She wasn’t afraid of anyone or anything. She always told you the truth even if it wasn’t what you wanted to hear. She was genuine to a fault, gentle at heart and yet she sugar coated nothing. She will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
