Annette,
My sympathy goes out to you and your family during this sad time. I’m glad you had the chance to move closer to your Mom and spend time with her.
This is a very sad time for our family. My thoughts and prayers are with Casey and her two girls and the rest of our family. Barb was very loved and will be greatly missed by all of us. She was a great sister to all of her siblings. I am so glad I got to spend time with her last summer. Knowing how strong her faith was we know she is at peace now and no longer suffering and is with our loved ones that past before her.
Please, accept my condolences. Barbara was my first-cousin and I know she was loved by so many and will surely be missed. Thinking of the family. She was a great person with deep faith and we all know that she is at peace and not suffering any longer…Love, cousin Verna, Halifax, Nova Scotia
