I just wanted to reenter my condolences to BEL's family and let them know what a beautiful lady she was and pleasure to work within the 1983 to 1995 timeframe in Charleston with Cambar. She was an invaluable assist to a Regional Manager new to the company. Always spirited and helpful. Never a task she wouldn't take on with resolve. God rest her soul. Norm

I’m so sorry to just now hear about Barbara’s passing. I worked with Barbara for years at Cameron & Barkley. We became very close and she helped me with my wedding in 1984. Her granddaughter was my flower girl and Barbara let my mother stay at her house when she flew in for my wedding. We lost touch after I moved away, but years later when I returned to Charleston, I had an art exhibit and heard that Barbara had purchased one of my paintings. I called her and we talked for a long time. She was a lovely and gracious lady with a good sense of humor. My thoughts go to her family who I’m sure will miss her deeply xxx

Worked with Bel at Cameron & Barkley Co in the 1980-90's. Wonderful lady. Attentive, efficient,
dedicated and personable. My best to her family
who should be very proud of their Barbara.

I met Barbara when I transferred with Cameron&Barkley from Tampa to Charleston in 1977. Barbara was not an ordinary employee/owner. She was a do whatever it takes to get the job done person. Many afternoons she stayed to do additional work after most everyone else had gone home. She was a very special person who was well liked by everyone. God called home a wonderful lady. Rest in peace.
