Barbara and Randolf were our neighbors for 10 years until we moved. We have such wonderful memories. Barbara was always smiling! We are so sorry for your loss. John, she always spoke so fondly of you. She loved to tell the story of people asking how much you weighed when you were a baby and she would give the weight you were when she got you! They will never be forgotten
