Barb was my best friend in junior and senior high school. She was funny, smart but most of all so supportive and loyal. I have never met anyone as beautiful and kind. She is one of the main characters in my book written about growing up in McCook and the love I have for this town.
Barb may be gone from this earth, but she will always live in my heart and many memories. Corky
