Dear family of Barb. I have just found out that Barb passed away in November. I am so sorry for your loss. Barb was such a good and kind person and I know how much she loved her family. I knew her mother and father also when they attend St. Margaret of Scotland Anglican Church in Barrie and Barb was such a faithful daughter when she brought her mom to church after her dad died. I I always looked forward to her letter at Christmas time and tried to keep her up as well on the news. I know she will be missed but I also know that she is now dancing with the angels. Many blessings to you and your family. Margaret and David paradis
