I was on Facebook this evening actually looking for Barb and sadly found her obituary. Barb and I grew up together 6 houses,apart. As kids we played jacks endless hours on her kitchen floor, school in the utility room with their big chalk board, army over the fence in Weilers field with Greg,my sister Amy and my brother Brian. We had some great times riding our bikes around the neighborhood and playing barbies in Debbie s big garage. If I remember we also used to fight a lot! I am so sorry to see that she has passed and send my sympathy to the family. Pam

Mrs. Hall is the reason I'm majoring in chemistry. As my first chemistry teacher she introduced me to the wonders of science and just how plain awesome it is. She cared so deeply about not only her classes but also each individual's personal development as a student and human being. Personally, she challenged me and pushed me, while still reminding me to laugh and enjoy every day. She believed in me when I didn't believe I was smart enough or good enough to study science and I am forever in her debt. She is truly the first person to make me realize that science was something I was really interested in. My favorite thing about Mrs. Hall was her amazing laugh and how she always greeted me with a smile. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Please know the impact she had on her students and how much she meant to us. She may not be here with us, but her memories and the impact on the lives of students will live on and on. God bless.

Ms. Hall meant so much to her students. She was so much more than just a teacher. She always went above and beyond what was expected. Our oldest, Matt CHS class of 2015, had Ms. Hall as his advisor for four years. Every year, he chose Ms. Hall as his special teacher for faculty appreciation day for baseball and football. She is the one teacher he wanted to see and catch up with when he had fall break earlier this month. He said he has her to thank for the best 4 years possible and always putting a smile on their faces to start each day. She made each and every one of her class of 2015 advisory students either a scarf,mittens or hat in their college colors. I know the students were all very touched by this gesture. Ms. Hall was always so positive and the students and parents at CHS loved her. As a parent, she was my "go to" person whenever I had any questions. She always answered right away and eased my worries. She was just was so kind. We were so excited when we heard our youngest, Nick class of 2019, was going to be in her advisory. Although, Nick only knew her for a few months. He really liked her and was looking forward to many more fun advisory moments with Ms. Hall. She was very special to our family and will never be forgotten. The Reibly Family Lisa, Eric, Matt(class of 2015), Nick(class of 2019)

I have tears in my eyes just trying to come up with the words to express my love for Barb and respect for her as a colleague, a teacher, and a person. A beautiful soul, Barb was a passionate teacher who genuinely cared about her students. For those who took the time to know her, they found a dedicated mentor who put students first. She believed in her students, and continually challenged them to think and grow as life-time learners. Earning an A in her class was just that--a grade EARNED through effort, diligence, and comprehension. She did not allow short cuts, but would provide hours of help for those students who sought it.

I remember after a terrible tornado went through southern Missouri, Barb immediately collected prom attire and sent it to the local high school at her own expense so that their students could still enjoy a special night, despite the devastation in their town.

Barb and I also shared a love for animals, and we worked with students to raise money for local animals in need. These are just two examples of Barb's selfless dedication and commitment to students that took her well beyond the walls of her classroom and impacted students in immeasurable ways. She touched so many lives as an educator, and a mentor for good.

Rest well, my friend. You are one of the brightest stars shining down upon us.
