I have know Aunt Barbara for my entire life. When we were young, my sister Louise and I would often have a sleepover at Aunt Barbara's and Uncle Harry's. Aunt Barbara had such enthusiasm for life and she enjoyed sharing stories about her sons, and her communities at work and church. She loved fashion and always looked beautifully turned out for any occasion.
She also enjoyed meals, eating out and particularly a good desert!
We all have lovely memories of Aunt Barbara and send our love to Russell, Mathew and family.

My fondest memory of visiting Aunt Barbara were the sleepovers at her place. Not being allowed white bread or margarine at home, my sister Barbara and I enjoyed bedtime snacks of white bread smothered in gooey margarine, yummy! The trips to Woolworths lunch counter for huge chocolate milkshakes were also a highlight of our many shopping trips. We send our love to Russell, Matthew and family.
