Beloved Barbara, 77, died peacefully at home in Hythe on Wednesday 3rd July after a short illness. She was born to Tini and Harry in 1946 in The Netherlands, the second of four children. Her sisters Elly and Gerda survive her, and her brother Huub, died a couple of years ago.
A nurse by training and temperament, Barbara met and fell in love with Michael, an English boy, on holiday in Spain. It was a romance that endured over 54 years. The couple had two daughters, Nicolette and Michelle, and six grandchildren, Madeleine, Elizabeth, James, Anna, Max and Frank.
Barbara seized every moment of joy and insisted on sharing happiness with everyone she met. She was generous, warm-hearted and utterly devoted to her family. She was also a professional and respected State Registered Nurse who was as loving and attentive to her patients, as she was to everyone. If you met Barbara, she made you, her friend.
Michael and her family will celebrate her life on Tuesday 6th August at a 10am Requiem Mass at Our Lady of Good Counsel RC Church, 2 Lower Blackhouse Hill, Hythe CT21 5LS. The Mass will be followed by a Cremation at 12pm at Barham Crematorium, followed by a simple reception at 1.30pm at the Sene Valley Golf Club. All who knew and loved Barbara are welcome to attend.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be sent to the Air Ambulance Charity Kent,
Surrey and Sussex.

Dear Michael, Nicolette, Michelle and all the family. Barbara was the life of the party and will be missed terribly. I will always remember her infectious laugh and great sense of humour. It was obvious to see what a loving and devoted mother and wife she was. Sorry we cannot make the celebration of her life on the 6th, but will definitely be with you all in spirit. Lots of love David, Catherine, Adam, Sam, Lucas and from all the Kasamakis here in Woking
