Barb was such a special person — I’ll always remember how much joy she found in riding her bike around the neighbourhood, listening to her favourite country music, attending concerts, and embracing the freedom she cherished so much.
Barb truly valued the people around her, and it was a privilege to be part of her support team and witness her strength, independence, and warmth. She brought smiles, laughter, and genuine moments that will stay with me.
My heartfelt condolences to everyone who loved and supported her. She will be deeply missed but always fondly remembered.

Barbara is a lovely soul. Her smile brought joy to everyone who seen it. Her humour was amazing and her laugh contagious. May we remember all of the good memories of Barb and never let her memory fade. We all love you Barb, I hope you found your motorcycle up there ❤️
