5 Trees were planted in memory of Barbara A. Person - August 18, 2026
My favorite lady, my great-grandmother, my heart, my everything. Thank you for guiding me in all the right directions and for always being that voice in my head that I would listen to whenever I was sad or felt like giving up. Thank you for being the best lady ever and for always making sure we had fun anytime we came to your house, even if it was just to see you. Thank you for every moment and every memory I got to spend with you. Thank you for simply being you. You will be truly missed, but I will carry your love and everything you taught me forever. I love you forever and always. 🕊️❤️
The amount of love grandmom had for each one of us was endless. She never missed a moment to say "I Love You" in words or action. Her beautiful smile radiated a depth of warmth that drew you to her. I thank Jehovah for blessing me to know her as my grandmother. I will cherish all the memories and laughter she & I were allowed to create in our relationship. We enjoyed watching airplanes and pointing out cloud shapes. And she lit up whenever we drove past clusters of trees. It just fascinated her to no end to see tree heights or the various types sharing the same space and encouraged her curiosity on God's wondrous creations to start a conversation we had over & over. I will carry her shared thoughts, advice and wisdom with me. She talked, I listened and I humbly appreciate that gift.
What a beautiful and loving friend I found in Barbara. Always loving and willing to offer a helping hand. She will be truly missed. Rest in peace my friend!
Sending my deepest condolences to the family. May God comfort you all with a spirit of peace and acceptance during this difficult time. Love San.
