Hello Barbara. Thank you for all your hard work on JAMES and the positive attitude you brought to everything we did. I appreciated your humour and I really admired your dedication and passion for the work. I hope you enjoy life to the full in retirement. Remember there are so many books out there to enjoy now that you have the time, even some written by British authors.

Thank you again

Barbara,

We had a lot of fun working JAMES together. WeE laughed, we cried, and we went a little insane.

I miss those days and I certainly will miss you.

Happy trails on your newest journey.

it was a pleasure working with you. You are nice, smart, focus and a hard worker. Your story/journey of your career inspires me. I wish you all the best. I pray you enjoy your retirement with your family in good health, peace and joy. I am so happy for you.

You Will Be Missed
by: Matt Spears

I've rarely seen anyone so focused and engaged as Barbara in making sure that every detail is accounted for and work is done correctly. I've worked with Barbara on the JAMES program and on the F-35 program. She has an awful lot of gas and mileage left in her engine that no doubt will be redirected into some awesome future accomplishments. Barbara will be missed!
