Auntie Barbara, I've held onto many memories of you, throughout my life. Whenever I think of you, they pop in my head and I've found myself smiling and sometimes laughing. My fondest memories were when I was a little girl, going over to your house, with my family and eating your delicious cooking and watching the Temptations on TV. I remember the mini meat pies and I've been hooked ever since. I'm glad my Mom had you in her life as well, especially during the hard times...you always found a way to make her laugh. She would tell me everything, like a school girl, laughing at the same time. In my mind and heart, I believe that is still going on now. You are both free of the bodies that failed you. I can imagine the peace surrounding you both like a warm blanket and watching over all of those, that you left behind. I know that you and my Mom are just a whisper away, Rest in the Peace and Glory of our Lord Jesus, that you both so deserve. I do love you very much. I always have, and I always will.

How I miss you so much mom. I miss your voice and our time together. I know that you are no longer in pain and I am grateful for that. I just want you to know how much I miss and love you. Until we see each other again. Love always, your Flower.

I think about you every day. I know that you are at peace and I am grateful for that but I miss you so much. I feel your absence daily and cry often. I miss your voice and our time together. I love you so much mom. Until we see each other again. Love always your Flower

We already miss you so much! You always loved getting together with your family and celebrating life. Your warm smile and presence will be greatly missed. Love you and will pray for you always! Mary-Ann

Merry Christmas Nana. I know you are with God celebrating this blessed day. I have so many memories with you but the ones that stick out the most are definitely around Christmas. I remember sleeping over and I layed on your lap and you sang “O holy night” and I fell asleep. You were always smiling, telling us to love one another and that your angels were watching over us. As I sit here staring at my Christmas tree and listening to o holy night, a wave of emotions take over and I miss you more and more. I will never forget the time we spent together and songs you used to sing to me. Now you can sing with the Angels and watch over your family. I miss you Nana and love you.

Rest in peace Barbara, you fought long and hard. Prayers are with your family. Our love, Aunt Evelyn and Sue.

Grandma, There's not a day that goes by that we're not thinking of you. We miss you so much and wish you were here with us. We are so happy to have spent so much time with you here in Florida. We will never forget the talks,laughs, and long rides we have had together. We will forever cherish those memories of you grandma. We love you deeply and you will forever be in our hearts and always on our minds. Love you forever, Your Little Chris & Tai (Your Girl).

Barbara you are my sister and my friend. Our memories growing up will always be in my memorie. I'll miss our weekly calls. You were always more concerned with my health then yours. There wasn't a person you didn't love. Even though I can do it myself in my prayers.. Give Mom, Dad, Joe, and James my love. There will be a day in the distant future we will all be together. Love you

My condolences on your loss. RIP Barbara.

My condolences to your family Chris. May your mom rest in peace.

You are the grandmother to three of my boys. I know if you can cook in heaven you are preparing a feast. I remember how you loved to cook. R.I.P.

I once called you Mom. You are the grandmother to three of my boys. I know you are singing and dancing with the angels. If you can cook in heaven, you are preparing a feast. I remember how you loved to cook. R.I.P.

My Sister, my heart and soul. My life will never be the same without you in it. All my favorite memories are with you. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey. You'll never know Sis how much I love you, please don't take my sister away. We sang this together every night. My heart is broken. I miss you so much Sis!

May God console her friends and family with the peace that Barbara is having her first Christmas in God's loving arms in Heaven.

In loving memory of Barbara Machado. God bess her loved ones with the peace in knowing she is spending her first Christmas in the arms of God.

Rip cousin Barbara

My mom, what can I say? She was strong, beautiful and loved her family. The memories will always be with me, but I will miss our 9am chats, her constant recipes that she posted and talked about. I miss you mom, now I understand how you felt when you said "I miss my mom" Sing to Jesus momma sing to Jesus, til we meet again.......I LOVE YOU

Dear mom, It is not often in life where you can find yourself with so much that you want to say, yet are at a complete loss for words. I so miss you but am comforted in that you are finally at rest, your pain and suffering at an end. You will be in my thoughts and in my heart until we are together again. I will miss your your cards, and your smile. I will miss you calling me your "Johhny". But most of all I will miss your call, and your voice. I love you mom. Your Johnny

I miss you so much mom. I will always love and cherish you and our time together. Until we see each other again. Love always, your flower

I have so many memories of my mom. She is one of the strongest women I have ever met. While I may be suffering her loss, I just want to wish all of her family and her friends my deepest condolences to them also. She may have been my mom but she touched so many lives. So many people loved her. May God bless you and comfort you during this time of loss.
