BARBARA FRANCIS SCHARF

Condolences & Memories (16 entries)

• Our family has wonderful memories of spending New Year's at the lake with all the Scharf's. Barb's liver pate was something I always looked forward to as the New year's treat. There were 16 of us staying in Paul and Michele's cabin and all of our kids grew up looking forward to celebrating with Barb and Don. You were a wonderful person, always making us feel welcome and always happy to see all the kids and families. We will miss you and your beautiful smile. Our condolences to the Scharf family.

• I had the privilege of working with Barbara at St. George School for 5 years. She was a master teacher, an inspiration to her colleagues and a tribute to her profession. My condolences to her family - Posted by: Alex Boyes (Colleague) on: Jan 06, 2016

• I have had the pleasure of knowing Barb for a little over seven years now. I loved our visits together at the salon. She always greeted me by saying "Hey Love" with a big smile on her face. She had a heart of gold, and it showed through her actions. I've never met someone who loved their family and friends as much as Barb did. My condolences to Don, Paul, Michele, Paula, Joe & grandkids. - Posted by: Tracey Osioway (Hairstylist) on: Jan 04, 2016

• I first met Barb at St George School when I was a beginning teacher. She became a wonderful mentor. Since that beginning our friendship grew and remained constant for 5o+ years in spite of the miles which separated us after I moved to the west coast.I feel so blessed to have had such a wonderful person in my life. Sincere sympathy to Don and to each of her family. - Posted by: carol wilkie (friend) on: Jan 02, 2016

It was our pleasure to have known & shared times with Barb. Always smiling, positive and unmistakably a very proud and loving wife, mother and grandmother! Many fond memories...always. Peter & Vera "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house there are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."

• For years, Barb would bring Megan to The Movement Centre on Wednesday mornings. Both "girls" would come into the Centre smiling and giggling and sharing their adventures from the night before. Turns out- every Tuesday was sleepover night at Grandma's. Megan would always arrive fashionably early, often bringing treats made the night before. Barb and I had great discussions on a wide variety of topics; She was one great lady and I will really miss her beaming smile. ( Barb, I meant to send you a card telling you how much I respected you; Christmas rush came and I ran out of time). Rest in peace, my friend. - Posted by: Margy Nelson (Friend) on: Dec 27, 2015
