I love you Auntie Bubu and will miss you terribly. You were always smiling and always gave me great advise. I don't know how to put my words on paper but you will be in my heart and there will be not one day that goes by that I will not remember my beautiful Aunt. Thank you for always being there for me. RIP my sweet Auntie Angel.

Barb was a special person in our lives. We will never forget her beautiful smile and zest for life. She was especially kind to our mother, Bette Younglove in her final days. Barb, you will be truly missed. We love you.
