Title: Barbara

I was named in memory of a friend who passed away August 30, 2003. She was very aware and active concerning women’s issues especially HIV/AIDS. Barbara was loved by a lot of people and is missed very much.

Ms. Busch is a white woman who lives in Hennepin, Minnesota and is active locally with a women’s support group.
