Barbara was my first real girlfriend. As classmate know, back then we could get a drivers license very early and as best I remember, she was the first girl that I took out on dates, i'm guessing it was sophomore year. I remember spending many evenings in her living room, with her parents back in the kitchen. I also remember that her mom and dad were both very sweet and nice. I read her obituary which tells me that I must not have seen her or even heard about her and all these passing years. She was a sweet girl with a sharp mind. May she Rest In Peace
Barbara was a wonderful young woman with whom I spent a lot of time for several years. We went to school formals, proms, and saw each other for a year or so after high school. I was very lucky to have known such a sweet, bright, cute, and fun person.
Barbara was one of the few people I've kept up with from high school. With that strawberry blond complexion we could make her blush so badly! In the last few years while knowing she had stage 4 cancer, she was able to join my husband and I for several days to places like Florida, Montana, and Alaska. She was very private and kept her diagnosis to herself mostly. She would be so pleased to know that Kelly and Richard remembered her fondly. She lived in California for many years but returned to Houston to care for her ailing father. She stayed after he passed and she ended up living there until her death. Her death brings it home to me that we are all on earth for a short time. Bless the class of 1969 and RIP Barbara.
From Kindrergarten through our senior year in high school, Barbara and I lived two blocks from each other. When she passed away, we lived four blocks from each other. That was because I had moved two blocks North of my childhood home and Barbara returned to her childhood home when she moved back to Houston to care for her father.
Our shared memories of the time we spent together in our youth are precious to me. But, I am most grateful for all of the time we got to spend together after Barbara returned to Houston. In her sweet and quiet way, she was quite the adventuress. She was always finding new places for us to explore in Houston. We had a lot of laughs! I miss her.
