Deepest sympathy to the Quinn family. Barbara and mum shared a close whole life friendship doing everything together as girls and young women. They married a week apart and as young mums spoke every day. Our families shared holidays at opunake. We called Barbara auntie and Jack uncle. Barbara was smart and always great fun to catch up with.

I am sorry to hear of your loss.
Barbara was a lifelong friend of mums, from the time they met as new entrants with a strong bond that lasted until my mother´s passing.
They shared many life experiences which continued into adulthood bringing with that weddings, children and responsibilities. That bond of friendship remained an important one and if their is a garden in paradise I´m sure the two friends will meet again.
