Betty, Lee, Leon, Obie, Doug, and Durwin,

 

Even though we are in Florida and can’t be there with you, we are with you in thoughts and prayers.   Your Mom was a very special person and will be missed dearly.   We know how hard this time is for you, but always remember, the difficulty of the day is a reflection of how deeply your family loves each other.  That love and commitment started with Barbara and Leo, and now they are together.  Barbara was proud of all of you and loved you dearly.

 

Love

 

Donny and Sue Plotts

Debbie and Mark Thorn

 

PS……….I will never forget the times I bowled on Barbara’s bowling team…what fun times!  She loved it and so did I!  (Sue)
