Dear Lisa and Jeff,
I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. She was always such a fun person with lots of energy. I enjoyed babysitting for the two of you and thought your home at the end of the Rose garden was so pretty.
My thoughts and prayers are with you
Love,
Sherilyn Scott

It was wonderful to have a relationship with Lisa and Jeff's Mother. In the early years of my marriage to Joe we would have lunch together and I called her my "wife-in-law". I was always so glad that we could be friends. I will miss her laugh and bright smile.

Lisa and Jeff, so sorry to hear of Barbara's passing. I was researching some history of Hartsville last week and was thinking about the family. Your mother was always so nice to me and I can just see her big smile now, her eyes even smiled. Sorry I can't attend the service but will be thinking of you. I never knew it but we share the same birthday. If I get to Mt. Pleasant to see Barbie, we will have to get together. Love, John McKinnon Sarasota, Fl.

I was so sorry to read your Moms obituary recently. We were friends here in Asheville years ago. I remained Facebook friends with her through the years and was able to keep up with nher and the family.

She loved her family and friends and was a vital person. Please accept my condolences in her passing. It's sad loosing all these special people , as I'm aging too, that have meant so much to me through the years.

With sympathy,
Grace Unruh

Barbara was a true character, I enjoyed having the pleasure of fixing her hair. She always had a smile on her pretty face. She never failed to ask about my grandson Gabe. I'm going to miss her.
