From Lu Taylor

I don’t remember when I first met Barb, but I do remember high school. It might have been because my last name was Dikeman and hers was Deason and we were simply seated together. However we came together, we found friends. I don’t think we saw each other over 5 times after high school, but we never lost touch. Not only that, but when we did talk or see each other to catch up, it was just like we hadn’t been apart long.

I do remember her being at my home one time during high school, and I talked Barb (don’t remember it being difficult!) into singing something for my mother. That lovely voice! Along with that great voice, I always think of those wonderful eyes and dazzling smile.

I am sad I won’t get to enjoy them again and I miss knowing Barb is in the world making it whirl.
