A bit more about Barbara:

When we bought our first house here in 1985, we only planned to stay for a couple of years, but we soon discovered what a great community this is and a wonderful place to bring up children. 38 years later we are still here! Our children, now in their thirties, participated in parent and tots, attended Burky’s and the elementary school. We have all formed special friendships in the community that will last a lifetime. I want to help keep Burkeville the special place it is for the next generation.
