    Ron, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I only met Barb once (when I visited Rochester in 1990) but she made an impression on me. You and your family are in my thoughts.

    36 years ago Barb welcomed me to the unique group of being a ‘LaForce Inlaw’ I will always be grateful for her support and friendship.

    I, and all of the Cardinal Mooney Class of 1967, am so sorry. We are thankful Barb was able to come to the 50th reunion last month. Barb will be very much missed by all who knew her.

    Ron, I was shocked to get the news last week and am so sorry for you and your family. There is so much support available and wish there was more I could offer. All I can say is have faith and think of all the great times you had together. Feel free to call me if there’s any comfort I can offer. Rick

    Ron, I’m so sorry for your loss. I knew you were concerned about her health, but had no idea, she would submit so soon. Our thoughts and condolences are with you and your family and Barb’s Mom and siblings and the extended family. I’m glad that we had a brief time to visit at the Mooney reunion. As you know, she, Chuck and I were in the second tier of Resch grandchildren and we enjoyed a class of our own. She’ll be missed by so many. You are always welcomed in our home and if you want to get away, let us know. I’m sorry we can’t be with you and your family today. Love you, Joe & Alex

    Ron and Family, Please accept our deepest sympathies for the loss of beautiful Barbara. We have so many wonderful memories of her that we will always hold in our hearts.
