Dear Don, my heart aches for you and your family. What a lovely Lady Barbara was. She always made me feel welcome and included in all those St Andrew’s activities. How special was it to hear Barbara and Jannette playing their flutes. And of course cake, many cakes, delicious cakes, I loved Barbara’s cakes and the love that went into each one. Consider yourself hugged and then hugged again. Margaret Thomas
Don, so sorry for your loss. All I can say is Love and tears.

To Mr. Brockway, Donna and Scott and family,
My very deepest condolences to all of you. Mrs. Brockway was always very special to me and to our family. She was my first, and best ever, Sunday school teacher, and we always felt connected for that reason. I always appreciated her kindness towards me and my own family. Mrs. Brockway was a kind soul and she will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Barb was our children's nursery school teacher at Jacks and Jills, Ancaster. Her kindness and thoughtfulness was very much appreciated. When we spoke, years later, Barb always asked how the kids were doing.
Always caring and thinking of others...a real gem of a lady.

Donna, I have great memories of you and your mom. My most favourite one is when you and I were in Brownies together selling Girl Guide Cookies with both our moms. Your mom would always pop her head in while I was meeting with my unit at St.Andrews. She will be missed.

Mrs. Barbara taught both of our girls at Jack’s and Jill’s Nursery School. She certainly helped them have a great start for their future years. Later we crossed paths again at St. Andrew’s United Church in Hamilton. What a great reconnection.
We will always remember her positive, warm outlook.
Our thoughts are with the family and with friends.

Don, Donna and Paul, Scott and Kimberly, and grandchildren and extended family, we extend our deep condolences to each of you. May you find comfort in the many memories you have made. She blessed our family with a lovely cake for our parent's anniversary, beautiful, all the right colours and perfect design. Mom and Dad were so pleased to cut into it, after pictures of course. It is a fond memory for us now. Sending prayers for you all.
