Haiku for Barb

One of Barb's greatest passions, besides her family, was her gift for creative writing. Thinking along these lines has led me to write a couple of haikus in honor and memory of our dear friend and colleague.

Dear One departed

Your laughter and compassion

Linger in my heart.

Sleep softly sister

Rest gently in the Lord's grace

Your work here is done.
