Barbara is a very private person who prefers to work behind the scenes rather in front of the footlights. She has been instrumental in getting the work of The Scribe out to the world and helping her daughter, Leslie , create a life in writing. Her modesty and hard work are best described, perhaps, by the simple lines she prepared years ago to explain her presence in this work.

"My childhood and youth were spent in Philadelphia, with a very strong presence of the Protestant church. In adulthood, I continually asked to be used as an instrument of God's work. However, it wasn't until I was introduced to the writings of the Teachers of the Higher Planes scribed by Ruth Lee that I knew where to look for that work and how to put it to use in
my daily life."

It is not possible to describe, without much input from Barbara, the life of a woman, wife, or mother who has always worked diligently for others, but we can imagine that it has been a long, arduous journey of self discovery and enrichment. We salute you, Barbara, for what you do for Leslie and the rest of your family, as well as what you did for you and this group, too.
