When I lose a friend I like to look back at the many memories we would have shared together as friends. There were many fond memories of having known Barb. Barb, you will be missed by all that you loved and touched in your life. Can't imagine what heaven will look like with you in the gardens!!!! - Posted by: Darlene Skaritko (Forever Friend) on: Jul 18, 2012

My Condolences goes out to Larry, Randy & Jade. The first time I had met Barb was back in 1972 when we moved from Montreal to Wpg. Beach. I remember like it was yesterday when a woman ran across the back yard to our house as her home was hit by lightening. Barb you were always a lady of class, and looks like another angel has been taken away too early in life. - Posted by: Wanda Yanosik (Keller) (long time neighbor in Winnipeg Beach) on: Jul 17, 2012
