"Our hearts are sadden by the loss of our Aunt Barbara. We have many memories of our Aunt and how wonderful she was to us and our parents. She was a fun loving person who truly cared about us and her family. She and our mother enjoyed each others company and had a lot in common. Although her later years were difficult and the loss of her soulmate, our Uncle Joe, her children were there for her through thick and thin. We are so sorry for the loss of your mother, but the memories of her and the good times we all had will keep her alive forever. God Bless all of you and know your mother is with your dad and all the pain and suffering is gone. Rest in Peace Aunt Barbara, we love you!"
