Our condolences to the Snyder family, and prayers are with Barb. Never easy to lose a loved one, but know that Barb was a good mother. Laurie and I respected her and Stub, and felt they did a great job in raising their children. A good example of love. Our thoughts are with fellow classmate Jay. Hope life is treating you well, and again our sympathy. Bruce and Laura Klein

Thanks to Barb for her open door policy to the neighborhood kids that surely meant she had to spend a lot of time cleaning up behind us all the way from Kindergarten to twenty years later, after bar time and too many Tom and Jerrys. Thank you for being the world's best Den Mother, showing us how to make something out of practically nothing and breaking up the fights in your living room over who got to use the Pabst case box for their shoe holders. I'm sure these displays of justice and fair play are what kept Jay and Jim out of the hooskow. Thanks for making a long trip in a convertible over the continental divide a memory we'll never forget. It will take me several lifetimes to make up for all the hours Barb volunteered to make Belmont the best place in the world to grow up in. Thank you Barb.
