“Barbara & I have been close friends since I moved to Plant City in 1962 when I got married. Barbara, Curtis, Jamie, Peggy, Bobby, & I were a close bunch & had lots of fun doing stuff together. I used to attend Youmans Baptist long ago; when I returned to the newly-renamed Youmans Praise & Worship Center & saw Barbara was still a member, I was so happy to happy to find we'd be attending together. She & her family members whom I got to know & love were very hospitable. --Anne Watts”

Gordon Watts wrote a sympathy message

“I would like to express my deepest condolences to Barbara's family. I knew Barbara from church (Youmans Praise and Worship Center in Plant City, FL). We occasionally talked about health & diet research, as we both had cancer; I know she did her best in all areas of her life. I'd like to especially thank her family for making everyone feel welcome when my mother, Anne, & I visited Barbara in hospice just before her passing: she & mom were very close friends. Rest in peace, my friend. 🙏❤️”
