I had great respect for Barbara, for her dedication and commitment to her students, for her kindness, her intelligence, her maturity. I remember her always baking a birthday cake each year for a student who wouldn't normally get one. Students who had her for homeroom still remember her and miss her. I trusted her and her integrity. She and Charlie raised a wonderful and loving family who allowed her to live and die with dignity and love. I will miss her and not forget her.
