Tributes
  1. Barbara’s gift of music to the Latrobe Light Opera Society, and to me in particular, made a major impact upon my life. I feel privileged to have worked under her direction for The Gondoliers, Waltzes from Vienna, The Gypsy Baron and The Mikado in the 1980’s. A highly intelligent and gifted woman who made such a difference to so many lives. My love and condolences to her family. Thank you for sharing her with us!
