You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
Or you can be full of the love that you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
You can remember her and only that she is gone
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what she would want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
I regret that I haven’t seen Barbara in such a long time, I love her dearly and consider her one of the best friends I have had in my life. My heart is broken for Hutch and the kids, she was a wonderful woman and this world will surely miss her! Compassionate, funloving and a family patriarch, Barbara will be missed by all who loved her! God bless the family and be with you all!
Marsha and family, sorry to hear about your mother,susan and I send our prayers and love.
Thoughts and lots of prayers for the Hope, Love an ‘Fight’ that she installed into your family. I see a strong self starting trait left in all of her children as a result of her Love…Such a Blessing To Have Met Her!!…
To the Family:
May your grief be overcome with the wonderful memories that you share with each other. She was a wife, a mother, a grandmother and a great-grandmother, and a friend to many, so keep those memories close within your hearts and she will be with each of you always and forever.

Dear Hutch and Family,
With my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beautiful sweet wife,Mother,Grandmother. I know that Barbara was one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen, But when you knew her she became more beautiful,because of the sweetness and beauty that came from within. My heart is hurting for each of you, but Barbara will forever be alive in our hearts and memories. May God grant you the Peace that passes all understanding,during this difficult time. Please know my prayers will be with you in the day’s to come
Marsha,
With great joy in the time you had together, but much sadness that time has ended. Mothers are truly special, their love knows no boundaries and even they when they say ‘No’ their love is really saying ‘Yes’, just as you did so often with Erin. So you must now say yes to the eternal peace and serenity your mom has entered. Know she will always be a presence in your life, and just as she loves you, so do so many of us.
We look foward to your return to the coast, and miss you very much.
Michael and Elaine

Our hearts were sad when we heard about Barbata passing away. We thought so very much of her. She was a beautiful woman with a laugh I will never forget. When Hutch coached me in basketball I had the pleasure of getting to know her as well as the rest of your family. I will cherish those memories forever. I pray that you will get thru the difficult days ahead. It is not goodbye just ‘See you later sweet Barbara!’
Love,
Annette and Nona
To the Morgan’s. I am so sorry for your loss. How I can remember all the times I spent at her house. She knew me the moment I was born. Growing up with all you guys were so much fun. Playing basketball and riding bikes and of coarse taking those grapes on her vines. I know she is a peace now and having no pain or suffering. God bless you all and I will be thinking of you all.
Our most heart-felt sympathy to your whole family. God Bless you and God be with you.

Dear Marsha and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about your mom. The best thing to do is talk about her, remember her, cry and never forget her love. The pain eases, as I know she would want you all to live life. My mom has been gone over 20 years now and I never go one day without a thought of her.
My best to all the Morgan Family.
