I was so very sorry to hear of Barb’s passing! It was always great to get together with Barb once a year in the fall for many years until Covid stopped the practice of our group of WLU Gals meeting somewhere in Southern Ontario for lunch to catch up and compare notes! I often think of the great times we had together! My deepest sympathy to Ken and family!
