Default Passing of Barbara Oar

Many of you know Ross Oar, author, contributor to WCI, inventor, and member of this board; I just read in the local paper that his wife Barbara passed away earlier this week.

I have had the opportunity to take some classes Ross has given and a nicer person you'll never meet. I for one will keep him in my prayers during these difficult times.

I had just posted this in the Off Topic section and then saw your post...
This is truly tragic news. Ross and Barb used to do our show every year until she was too ill to make the trip to Florida. They wintered in Zephyrhills. Both of them are the nicest people you'd ever want to meet. They have been very much missed at our show the last few years. My heart goes out to Ross and their children and grandchildren.
