I am truly sorry for your loss. I met Barbara years ago when we worked at NSWCDL. She had such a loving spirit that never changed in all the years that I knew her. I am truly sorry for your loss. I extend my deepest and most sincere condolences to the family.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.” Isaiah 43:2 Laura and Eric, we are sorry for your lost. We are here for you not just as neighbors but as friends. Love you GOD Bless and we are here for you.

Such a beautiful spirit! I met dear Barbara several years ago when she received a gift certificate for massage. I have enjoyed our visits and talks. A true gem! Be blessed in your memories!

I’ll miss Barbara Jean and our many great times at F’burg Baptist church, NSWC, Spotsy High Reunions and phone calls. She was such a loving and fun lady, with a wonderful giggle. Prayers of comfort for her family and friends. Rest in Peace Barbara Jean.

Barbara Jean and I grew up in Sylvania Heights as neighbors. We went to Spotsy together, sang in the church choir, then carpooled to Dahlgren as we started our careers at NSWC. After we retired from Dahlgren, we learned that we were 5th cousins thru both of my parents as we both started searching our family’s roots. We spent many hours on the phone recalling our mutual history and sharing notes about what we had learned about our mutual ancestors, Through my mother, we are connected by our mutual 4th G-grandparents, Frank Sullivan and Francis Newton of Paytes. Through my father, we are connected thru our mutual 4th G-grandparents, Alfred and Peggy Battaile of Burr Hill, Orange. I can’t recall a time that we didn’t each other’s company. A Wonderful Lady as was her dear mother, Ruby Mae Woolfrey Jett. God Bless this Lady and her family.

To Cheryl and family, We knew Barbara for scarcely a year but were very honored to know her for even that short time. She had an endearing disposition toward all of our crew (who helped in her home renovations) and a treat to visit her after the project was completed…we will never forget her sweet chuckle and generous friendship. Eternal rest grant unto her, Oh Lord; may she rest in peace.
