The family wishes to express its most sincere gratitude to the resident care staff of both Heritage Monona and especially the Capitol Lakes nursing facility where Barbara resided for the final two years of her life. We also wish to thank the staff of Agrace Hospice for their years of support, care and kindness to Barbara.
Though she had a life with many sorrows, her love, patience and sacrifice for her husband and children was never diminished.
