Barbara was so supportive and kind to me from the start of my career in banking. A smart, intelligent and highly organised individual who left an indelible mark. Our Fat Rat and Little Weed nick-names for each other sum up Barbara's humour and sense of fun. It was a real privilege to have known Barbara. Rest in Peace with your beloved Laurie. I expect you will be playing 500 and giving everyone hell!
