"I am so sorry for your loss of your mom/grandmom?s passing?. Barbara was one of my best friends. She was loved by all of our family, and especially by our boxers Stella, Buster, and Lola. She was amazing how she could handle them and they listened to her so well. I truly feel blessed to have had Barbara in my life, and our lives. I miss her terribly but now she is up in heaven with her mom, dad, Dorothy and Kathy. She was there for me when my mom passed six months earlier, and I hope they met up in heaven and took a trip down the shore like we had planned for this summer. When I think of her I do nothing but smile, we all loved her so much. Sending lots of love, hugs, and prayers Sharon, Doug, Chelsea, Chris, Hudson, and her dogs. Xo"
In loving memory of
Barbara A Scally

Tributes
"John, Mary, Jennifer... Barbara was well liked by those who knew her here in the 'Towers". As her neighbor, I enjoyed our back and forth banter as she came down for her mail, or on her way to the many errands that she ran weekly. She will be missed greatly. Frank McCart"
