Barbara taught me it is ok to be myself, and that no one can put me down...I told her we seemed two peas in a pod of sorts. Both having our unique individual idiosyncrasies...she embraced me fully for who I am, and I forever will be in her debt for the kindness, acceptance, and love she radiated toward me! One memory of such acceptance, I set the table for lunch one day and Barbara just laughed when I got a larger than needed bowl, to put my soup in. I didn't want it to slosh over the sides and make a mess! So I filled this bowl part way (it was a serving bowl, for vegetables or smaller side dishes). Barbara told me to do what works for me, and not necessarily the "proper" way; and she chided me for trying to apologize for my odd choice of dishes. Never change for someone else, stay true to who you are, always! I am lucky to have met and been able to talk and work, with this amazing woman!!!! She is sorely missed, but one day we'll be able to kill up our heels together! Love you so much Barbara, so much...and thank you to her family for their kindness to me, basically angels on Earth...I will stop, I'm starting to cry...happy tears, but still...
