[Oe List ...] Barbara Barkony

[Isobel and Jim Bishop]

Dear Mike and Judith,
Thank you for sending this , and to  Lynda for the super photo.
We always enjoyed the company and presence of Barbara and dear Don, too.
  I think that because Jim and I had worked in a store front parish  
on the east side of Cleveland in 1960- that Barbara took special note  
of us Aussies. We will remember her with gratitude for her grace and  
love and humour.

Our love to Don and his daughters.
Isobel Bishop.
