Barb retired in 1993 after a successful nursing career, primarily within the obstetrics department at the Pasqua Hospital. Barb and Seb enjoyed traveling, and took many trips exploring Canada, the USA, and abroad. Barb enjoyed attending family gatherings, and hosted many family dinners over the years, keeping abreast of all the family news. She enjoyed animals, especially feeding bread to the neighbourhood rabbits and watching the birds in her feeders. She also enjoyed gardening, as evidenced by her beautiful garden filled with her beloved flowers. She loved her daily challenge of crossword puzzles. Always had a cup of tea, a puzzle, pen and her dictionary in hand. Barb was proud to be a member of Blessed Sacrament Parish and Holy Child Parish throughout the years.
