I knew Barbara for many years when I worked at Sacred Heart Church here in Miles City – we always chatted each week about what bills needed to be paid at the church in Terry or other topics as needed. She always knew what was going on around the church in Terry. My prayers are with you.

Prairie County has lost an amazing historic resource. Barb was one-of-a-kind! I will miss the opportunities to speak with her about the country we both hold so dear.
