"This lovely lady and I worked in the Washington walmart deli and the bowling alley for years. She was a bright spot in my life. I since have moved to Evansville, but I'd think of her often. In fact, I just thought of her yesterday, wondering how she was doing. Heaven has another angel, one that will have the others laughing. Rest in peace Barb, it was an honor to know you."
