I have kept and love this picture as I was always told by my dad that I look just like my Aunt Barbara ❤️ our birthdays are 6 days apart and every year my dad would say is it your birthday or Barbs? I’m grateful to look like her, she was always so fun while growing up! I remember the crazy camping trips especially the one in November! Her love for animals, when we visit I would remember her always having ( HUGE) dogs. Aunt Barbara you will be greatly missed love ❤️ you!
Always a smile, shy and sweet may she rest in peace.
