To the family and Friends is Sister Williams, my deepest sympathy to you in your time of sorrow. Words can express how much I'm going to miss Barbara. We had so much fun yard sale hunting and at the auction at Tommy Wallace but most of all pioneering together. I'll miss her telling me about her granddaddy & grandma's old sayings. Her fishing stories and fact that I wound't eat river or pond fish. She was always going to cook me some that I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. She loved Jehovah and looked forward to the new world and all the grand promises that Almighty by mean of Jesus that awaits all who served Jehovah faithfully. As Barbara takes a nap my we build our relationship with her God Jehovah. It was her hope that her family would come to know the Good of all comfort Jehovah. My family offers our condolences and prayers. The Lester Family
