Shine in heaven sister I know that's where you are Is it really high above the earth? Or not really that far? Sister, how we prayed for you! I reached to touch His hem But you grasped onto it... And held it, and went to be with Him Shine on precious sister, for now You're truly free Though I'm the selfish baby sis To keep you here with me My Barbie Doll, my sister When you left us to depart You took a lot of heaven and You took with you our hearts

Aw, yes, truly, truly loved. She was the glue that kept our family united for years on end with her many parties, just embracing life to the fullest, an amazing precious sweetheart. She influenced my poetry when I was little, and when we did poetry at school, I aced it because of her huge influence on my admiration and love for the arts. It is only fitting I find solace in writing about her now. Thank you for your visit Harry. I hope all is well with you and your family this Holiday season <3

Thank you Judy, we know this, we're just, missing her and can't really imagine life without her in this realm. She battled crohn's disease so long, and always beat it. I had strength in her strength, but she was frail as one of my nieces pointed out to me when she called to tell me she was going downhill quickly at the hospital. Barbara is now healed in heaven, and has given us another incentive to look to heaven's glory <3 Thank you for praying for me, our family really need those prayers right now <3 Hugs to you Judy <3

Thank you for your condolence and love Deb, we have been broken hearted to lose this precious sweetheart. As we grapple with this loss, and remember that Christmas was her favorite holiday, many of us are trying to light up our homes with the joy of Christmas, and the legacy of love she shared with everyone she knew <3 Though we know she lives in heaven, and we will see her again someday, this has been a truly hard time. Your loving comments and sweetness mean the world to me <3 Hugs to you Deb, and thank you sweet friend <3
