MRS. BARBARA DUNN By
Richardine Holmes
She was quiet and different yetfull ofstrength, an all-a-roundgoodperson, who said what she meant. A friend to all those she met, a living example of how people should act. A mother of five and raised three more, not to mention her greatgranddaughter (Little Barbara) who she adored. She loved "all" her children and grandchildren too, And was forever doing for each, what ever she could do. She awoke every morning at the crack of day, and always fell to her knees to pray. She was a good wife to Floyd, who she loved and adored, And together they set an example for young couples to explore. She surrounded herself with beauty, which reflected her inner soul; daily read her Bible which gave herfull control. But now her life on earth is over, her spiritgone home to rest, Sure herfamily andfriends will miss her, but God wants the BEST.
