Barb, a devoted Catholic and affectionate mother, adored her family wholeheartedly.  She loved bowling, playing tennis, and golfing with her life-long friends.  Barb absolutely loved to travel around the whole country, especially visiting many of the National Parks to marvel at their beauty and her trips to Marco Island to relax.  She was the ultimate shopper and gift-giver, especially at Christmas time.  She loved watching Law and Order, drinking her Manhattans and enjoying her Chex Mix.  She was cherished by all.
