Thank you for all the kind words about my mother. May my mother find peace in heaven. My prayers go out to my daughter who had to go through the loss of her grandmother. I can only imagine the pain and grief she went though. Her grandfather and I think about her all the time and hope to reconnect with her soon.

Barbara was a very knowledgeable and helpful contributor to the Multiple Myeloma list serv. She shared with all of us the knowledge she had learned fighting this disease.
She inspired me to keep a positive attitude regardless of the circumstances.
Please convey to her family and friends that her giving spirit and concern for others made her a very special person to us all. She never mentioned that her condition was declining, but always showed concern for others on the list.
Best regards,
A

It as very heartwarming for me to see all of the people that cared so very much for Barbara. I would like all of you to know that her daughter is doing remarkably well. She was legally adopted two weeks ago and is settling into her new family, routines, activities, and friends very well. She was adopted by a couple who have known her for 2.5 years. This same couple was at Barbara\'s bedside during her final days, and they made sure that all of Barbara\'s requests and wishes were granted. It was tragic to see Barbara go so quickly 10 days from the day she entered the hospital, she put on a brave face and fought hard until the very end. Peace be with each and every one of you.

There is a feeling of very personal loss when one of my MM colleagues passes, intensified by the fact of her outgoing and knowledgeable help on the List. I have the belief that her contributions have helped many of us realize a longer and better life than we would have had without her.

To Barb\'s Daughter,
For us on this MM bulletin board your mother was a very important person with the wonderful goal of keeping us accurately informed of everything regarding this disease that we all share. And she helped us to not give up with her messages of inspiration and hope. We also enjoyed her humor very much.
My condolences to you in your grief. Be proud of your mother and remember only the good times you had with her.

She had become a vital member of our virtual MM community and we all loved her dearly.
We will miss you Barb, and hope you are enjoying your life of pain-free living now with the Lord.

Barb was one of the first and most comforting members of the myeloma listserv that I encountered. Our diagnoses came at roughly the same time, and our personal situations were very similar we each had a 6yr old child at the timeShe was always very informative and supportive at the same time, even when she had difficult information to share. I am saddened at her passing. My sympathies to her daughter. I know she probably taught you so many important things about life and love. I can only imagine how much more she had to share. God\'s speed, Barbara.

Barb: I have missed you so much on the board and will continue to miss you. You were an extremely intelligent person but I never detected the least bit of arrogance on your part. I will always remember our instant messages which took place, for me, due to the time difference, in the middle of the night. You were telling me about having to leave early in the morning to bring your daughter home from horse camp. I hope your daughter knows how very much you loved her. I also hope we on the Multiple Myeloma ACOR list serve can find some way of contacting your daughter as many of us would like SO much to be able to express our feeling directly to her. Thanks so much, Barb, for having given me the chance to know you.

The last thing she said to me was that she was going to pump up her immune system and that she hoped one day she and her daughter could visit us and hit the theme parks in Orlando. She gave us a lot of good advice, better than my wife\'s doctor did. This world is so much poorer for her passing. Barbara, thank you. Thank you so much. We will miss you, we already do.
