She always had the highest level of love and compassion. Very few people who encountered Barb saw anything other than a happy, loving, selfless young woman. All who had the privilege to know her were certainly better for having that chance. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> If she was not caring for a baby she was engaged in one of her many other passions. Her love of crocheting, she was never more than five feet away from a skein of yarn. Also she loved to kayak, fish, and spend time with her friends and family.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> Her parents want all to know that although Barb is not with us here, we certainly will all see her again soon in heaven. We take comfort in that knowledge. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> Funeral Services will be held at </span><st1:place><st1:placename><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">Heartland</span></st1:placename><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> </span><st1:placetype><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">Church</span></st1:placetype></st1:place><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">, 8440 M-21, </span><st1:place><st1:city><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">Ovid</span></st1:city><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">, </span><st1:state><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">MI</span></st1:state><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> </span><st1:postalcode><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">48866</span></st1:postalcode></st1:place><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">, at </span><st1:time hour="15" minute="0"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">3:00 P.M.</span></st1:time><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black"> on </span><st1:date day="17" month="10" year="2021"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">Sunday, October 17, 2021</span></st1:date><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">, with Pastor Ben McBride officiating.
