Barbara loved spending time with her daughters and being a grandmother!  Barbara was a special Nanny to Brandon Morris of Aiken, Anna Brusco of Tampa, Florida and Emily Brusco of Winter Park, Florida.   Special love to Vega who sat at her side during her worst days. Love to her niece Pam (Steve) Thompson of Beaufort, SC.  Her great nephews Jeffrey (Meghen) Thompson of Beaufort and Eric (Paige) Thompson and their children Rebecca and Adam of Beaufort, SC.  All were so kind to make special trips to see her. Many thanks to Brad Hudson and Perry Hutto for visiting, communion and praying with her.  We also appreciate the fine care that our mother received through Amedisys.  Heather, Dawn, Betsy, Josephine, and Kayla were wonderful to Mom and us!
