La Marque has lost one of its finest residents. Barbara was my classmate at LMHS. Such a bright student, a caring, compassionate, loving woman. It has been a joy to reconnect during the past 12 years or so as we have planned and attended class reunions. Sincerest condolences to Jimmy and their family. May the memories of the good times, the adventures and the laughter of fun family times fill your heart. May God wrap His loving arms around you during these difficult days ahead.

I was so sad to hear of her troubles recently. I will always remember how loving and welcoming she was to me and Darren when we joined the family. She will always be my Aunt Barbara. I’m so sorry for your loss of such a sweet and kind mom, grandma and great grandma – and sister! I hope you all find comfort and peace in remembering all the good times and special traditions you shared with her. My condolences to you all.

I am so sorry to see that Barbara has passed away. She was always a happy soul and always had that same smile on her. I remember her leading the LMHS band as I was also in the band for a few years. Prayers for peace to all family and friends.

I am so fortunate to have had Barbara as part of my life since the 1950’s. We were classmates, band members, we twirled and marched together, and most important, became best friends. My thoughts and prayers go out to her husband Jimmy, her children, grandchildren, and especially to her brother Allen. I will miss my friend, sweet Barbara.

Jimmy, So sorry to hear of Barbara’s passing. I have so many wonderful teen memories of spending time with the Klyng family. I still remember you and Barbara showing up at your family’s garage (our teen hang out) and teaching us the “Stroll”. We all looked up to Barbara. A beautiful person. Love and prayers for the Klyng family.
