My sincere condolences to you both, Susan and Jaynne. Take comfort in knowing she is free now. Goodbye, dear friend. I will cherish our fun times and memories forever. May you rest in eternal peace.
My prayers are with her sisters at this time. I don’t know of a better friend than she was to me. I will miss Barbara very much and am comforted by knowing she is free of pain and in the arms of her savior. Rest in peace sweet friend.
My prayers to the family for strength, comfort and guidance through this difficult time. Cheryl Kolbe
My memories are of us being teenagers together in Midland. Having ever so recently reconnected with you Jaynne, I had hoped to learn more of what she was doing. Your posts began to reveal how ill Barbara was. I am so terribly sorry she was declining so and how hard it was for you and your sisters there with her. Bless you both as you sort out the next few months adjusting to her loss.
She was a wonderful friend and I’ll always remember our wonderful times together. Please take comfort in knowing that she is now resting in the arms of our Lord. My deepest condolences to you both on your loss.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in God’s sure promise of a resurrection as set forth in the Bible. (Acts 24:15; John 5:28,29) Those who are raised to life will have the prospect of never again being subject to misery, sickness, or death. (Revelation 21:4) I hope that reflecting on these thoughts will give you some relief during this difficult time.
My prayers are with Barbara & her family. She was a wonderful sweet lady. My ACTS sister!!! & Christian Mother Altar Society member!!! Blessings, Maria Medrano
