In Loving Memory of Barb Desroches

Donation protected
Our beloved angel Barb had the brightest smile and most incredible zest for life. For those of you who know Barb, you know she was one of the best of us. She was kind hearted and respectful to everyone she met! Barb was always generous and loving to her family, friends and strangers! She truly made our lives better & the world a better place!

In December of 2022 she was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer and given an estimated life expectancy of 3-5 years. This was a tremendous shock to Barb, a single mother and her family. Barb has two beautiful adult children Lexi (22) & Cole (21) one a teacher & the other a police officer.

Her love and devotion to Lexi and Cole was the fuel she so vigorously fought with. The love only a Mother can understand. After a valiant fight which included 4 months of chemotherapy, open-heart surgery and a mild stroke Barb succumbed to the cancer & complications on May 30, 2023 at the age of 46.

This fundraiser is intended to serve as a source of remembrance of Barb and her spirit as well as a source of financial support for Lexi & Cole who are now faced with picking-up the responsibilities of the house, taxes, college loan payments and general living expenses.

Please donate in remembrance of Barb and to help Lexi & Cole to fulfill her dream of having her children be successful & happy in their lives!

RIP your dear friend, loving mother & devoted daughter for a life well lived and for all the joy you brought to us!! We love you & your spirit will always be in our hearts!
