  6. Missing you so much Barb; you were my go to friend so many times in Traralgon. Your friendship to our family, especially, Libby and Rachelle will never be forgotten. It was through our two eldest girls becoming friends during those years at Kildare College. Their friendship remains today. So looking forward to seeing you in Heaven Barb. Thank you for your open heart, the beautiful way you connected with people. It is no wonder your girls do the same! Our hearts were broken when your Vivienne passed away unexpectedly. We will never forget the the grace you carried through this period and now to think you are together with your Viv. We will go on loving you our forever friend..
