00:00:00
it looks so tiny I know it's so tiny bet she was that small Barbara was chosen as
00:00:07
a varsity cheerleader when she was a sophomore sophomore so she would have been a varsity cheerleader when she was
00:00:15
a junior that is the first time in the history of the high school that a junior would have been on the varsity uh
00:00:24
cheerleading team and that was 1979 yeah I remember when all the girls came in to our bedroom and kidnapped her
00:00:31
when she made Varsity chair they all came in and got her and she was so excited she was excited to find out that
00:00:39
she didn't make JV she made varsity and everybody was talking about it a lot of there was a lot of girls that were upset
00:00:47
that uh because for her to make Varsity some of those some of the varsity cheerleaders uh you know one or two must
00:00:56
have lost their position and there was a pre season game early August right before she was killed that she got to go
00:01:05
out on the field and cheer and we were all there watching her and so excited for her yeah she was bright and
00:01:13
beautiful and happy and yeah she was so excited and we were and everyone was so proud do you remember this yeah yeah my
00:01:24
grandma taught my barara how to knit or crochet my my mom was teaching Barbara how to crochet and of course she'd go
00:01:33
over to Grandma's house and complain about Mom and Dad and everybody else and my mom would just sit there and teacher
00:01:38
had a crochet and about half of this was done when Barbara was killed and I took it to my mother and I
00:01:52
said Mom would I'm going to ask you something so awful but I just wish I I said would you finish it
00:02:01
and she waited she hesitated and then she said I'll finish it and but she told me when she finished it that it was hard
00:02:10
to do yeah
