I had the great pleasure of singing baritone in Island Grove Chorus with Barbara. She was always so much fun to be around, a real live wire to be sure.
I am sorry for your loss, and sure that she is singing in a barbershop quartet up in the “great chorus” now. She must have brought great joy to your family.
