Our Beloved Barb Has Passed

My condolences to Chuck and family. While I was never fortunate enough to meet Barb personally, I feel I knew her from the forums. She was a very kind person and will be missed by all.
 
Barb will be missed around here for sure. Prayers out to you Chuck. I am very sorry about your loss :(
 
I send my deepest condolances, to all who knew and loved Barb. This is truly a moment of sorrow for everyone.

R.I.P Barb.
 
Prayers and Love from AZ.

Rest in Peace Barb.
 
I'm deeply saddened to hear this news - I only met Barb for the briefest of moments at Blade, and doubt she even remembered me, but it was clear that not only was she the life of the party, but she was loved by everyone around her. Today is a truly sad day, and the only thing that takes the sting away the tiniest bit is to know that so many from this community had the pleasure of knowing a truly exceptional lady. She will be missed.
 
First the flooding and deaths in Tennessee and now this. :(
Barb truly fought the good fight with this disease, and she did so with dignity, grace, and an optimism that I will never forget. I hope she has found peace, and my prayers go out to Chuck and their family.

She'll be missed around these parts. That's for certain.

Man this breaks my heart.
Chuck our thoughts and prayer will be with you .
I will always think of Barb as part of Busse .
 
Just another small time poster/long time lurking sending prayers to Barb and her family from New England.

It was inspiring to read her posts. God bless.
 
I am deeply sadened by this terrible news. As others have stated, I had the honor and privelage of meeting Chuck and Barb at Blade and it was like meeting my long lost brother and sister. They were both so kind and both so full of love for each other, for Jerry and his knives and the people that work there and also love for God. This gives me peace and I am sure it offers some peace for Chuck knowing that they will be together again soon. Beautiful people are so hard to find in this ugly world but Barb was such a beautiful person and will be sorely missed. May she rest in peace and may god bless you Chuck and your family. You have my # if you need to talk.

My condolences go out to each who was touched by Barb's spirit and attitude over the years. She was a blessing.

Words cannot describe, nor can I imagine, the loss you feel, Chuck. The prayers of my family continue to go out to you. We are here for you, brother.

Stacey, Wendy, Camille and Gabriel.


I miss you, sweetie.

I appreciate all the wonderful times I spent with Barb...and that is why I am really feeling bad because Chuck had those wonderful years with Barb....and he has to be feeling the loss of Barb...his soul mate

I have cried and cried tonight...but I know that Barb would not want this...I spoke to her a couple of weeks ago at the hospital and she was as AWESOME as she ever was...

I just read of this, and my heart goes out to Chuck and his family. Barb was one of the nicest folks who I first met at Blade, and I was struck by her friendliness and sense of humor. May God bless Barb, Chuck, and their family.
