I very much enjoyed working with Barbara on the St. Augustine Church Sanctuaty Committee. She was a very special lady and a wonderful Mother to Dan.
She will be missed.
I just saw Barbara’s obituary in the sound. I worked with Barbara when we were very young at the Ui co in Hamden, CT. She was a pleasure and joy to work with. I would see her occasionally in stores., through the years. I just want the family to know how sorry I am. I also know her sister Bernadette, who taught catechism years ago to my daughter. I am truly sorry for your loss. Gif bless her and her family. RIP 🌹😢🙏💕

My thoughts and prayers are with Dan and Barbara’s entire family. I just learned of Barbara’s death by reading her obituary in the Sound newspaper. Barbara was a kind and pious person, a loyal friend, and a devoted mother to Dan. I have no doubt that she is now in Heaven with her friend Jesus, enjoying her reward of life everlasting after a life well-lived in this world.
