claire pepper To Gord, Sarah, and Andrew and Graham
I was so honored to meet all of you and know and become friends with the “Barb” she and I spent alot of time talking about life and her love for her gord,sarah and andrew and graham and then her grandson. She had a quirky sense of humor and was one brave woman, and taught me often about how not to take life for granted. She often would also call her friend valery whom she loved as well. I always looked and admired your photo of your marriage in her room daily, when there..I saw how happy she was meeting with sarah and grandson in her days before leaving us. I remember asking her “Barb, if you could do anything in this life as a wish what would you do” she replied “I would walk, walk and walk, and never stop” god speed to you, and Keep your nails painted red Barb.xox

No words can express just how deeply missed Barb will be. I miss our chats, the jokes and just generally seeing Barb when I’d come in to the House. The smile she’d flash as soon as I’d walk into the room, or if she asked for another cup of coffee, or 2. She was such a pleasure, a Special Lady and I will treasure all the memories I have of her forever. Take care of yourselves and sending Love & Strength to you all.
