Barb was a very special person. I saw her most of the time at her grandchildren's sporting events. I always hoped when I walked into the building to see the game that she was there. She had a way that made you feel like you really made her day if she got to see you. I think she thought everyone was very special and needed to be treated as such. Something I will always try to emulate. She will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to family and friends

I met Barb through work at American Family Insurance many years ago. She was a very special individual and always so friendly and a smile on her face. I was saddened to hear of her passing. RIP Barb! Bonnie Rostad

I first met Barb at American Family and we were neighbors for a while. We shared some good times on our Friday afternoons off and at her softball games. I was very saddened to hear of her death. Their were people that said we looked a like and used to joke about being sisters. After losing my own sister in January this leaves an even bigger whole in my life. You have lost a most wonderful mother, grandmother and friend. May your memories bring you peace and comfort.

Don, Barb and I shared many adventures over the years. Our travels took us to interesting locales such as The Caribbean and Belize and on many occasions, to Ironwood, Michigan. Barb brought a sense of fun and a spirit of possibility thinking to our travels, always welcoming whatever came about with her lovely smile. The welcome mat was always out at Don and Barb's beautiful home on the lake. I will treasure the memories of being on the pontoon boat, watching the sun set and moon rise. Barb's graciousness and thoughtfulness carried the day as she tended to all the details to make our time together relaxing and enjoyable. Her hospitality extended to all as evidenced by the hosting of a Koski family reunion,, sharing with all of us the beauty and charm of their home on Lake Wisconsin . Barb and Don's visit to California to join me in celebrating my 80th Birthday will always be a reminder of Barb's thoughtfulness and caring. Her illness was creating challenges; however, she smiled through it all--always putting the needs of others first, as was her style. I am grateful, knowing that my brother Don had such a special person in his life. Her loving caring and spirit will live forever in our hearts. Elaine Koski Jegi, Don's Sister
