Barbara began her journey to greatness to achieve an everlasting reward on September 19th, 2022, when she was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer.

If You Could See Me Now…

If you could see me now, you wouldn’t shed a tear. Though you may not understand why I’m no longer here. Remember my spirit,

I’m still very much alive oh,

I’ve touched the walls of jasper, dipped my foot in the crystal sea. The beauty is beyond words

I’ve even seen your mansion, Someday I will meet you there. Allow Jesus to be our guide, His words will show you the way.

n someday.

Sister-My Sister

Your life was full of loving seeds. Forever thoughtful of my special needs. Today, tomorrow, and my whole life. I will always love and cherish you.

And that's just what we do Every time we reminisce. With loving thoughts of you You're with us when each new day dawns. And when we say goodnight

Our guardian Angel is here on earth. And Heaven's shining light

If Roses Grow in Heaven

If roses grow in Heaven, Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my mother’s arm. And tell her they're from me. Tell her I love her and miss her, And when she turns to smile. Place a kiss upon her cheek. And hold her for a while. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, But there's an ache within my heart. That will never go away.
