Barbara Jean Reed

I met Barbara as a volunteer with Wisconsin Public Television. She was especially active with the Auction every spring. She liked to work on the phone bank and also in confirmation call backs, and she often donated lilac bushes, which were very popular. And when I was shopping at Marshall Fields or Macy's, I would stop by the linens department to say hello and chat if she wasn't busy. She was such a vibrant person, so friendly and so upbeat. I will miss her greatly. My heart out to her family. Ann Campbell

Glenn, Sorry for your loss of Barbara. I alway enjoyed chatting with her at Macy’s or whenever we happened to meet. Unfortunately it’s been quite some time since I’ve seen her, or you for that matter. Love your kids and grandkids all the more. She will live on in them. Sincerely, Duane Barmore

Barbara was my classmate in high school. We shared some classes and I clearly remember her as a friendly, sweet person. My sympathy to her entire family.

To Barb our Classmate of 56 years: We made great friends in High School and have continued to enjoy their comradery over the years. I'm so glad we were able to spend some time together at our 55th Class reunion. We will miss you.Your Classmates Wayne and Maryalice Rosenow and all of the Class of "62"

Barbara always had others in need in her heart. She took the time and energy to connect to those most vulnerable among us. She knew how to love.
