Our beloved daughter, wife, and mother Barbara Helen Waugh, 58, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 24 after a courageous nine month battle with cancer.
She was born on
After moving to
Barbara had an avid love for the outdoors. She loved to kayak, fish, and garden. She loved spending time with her family and friends. She always had a good joke to tell and could always make a person laugh.
We will miss her everyday for the rest of our lives but know that she will live on in the hearts of all who were privileged to know her. She made such an impact with her compassion, her smiles, her humor, and her love of life! Although we are going to miss her terribly on earth, we know that the life of the party has just arrived in heaven!! We also know that her grandson (due in 12 weeks) just received his guardian angel!
She is survived by her mother, Suzanne Niparavic; her husband, Ken Waugh; her children, daughter Tamara Engelhardt (Loy), and son Chris Waugh.
She is preceded in death by her brother, Michael Niparavic and father Leonard Niparavic.
A celebration of life service will be held on Tuesday, October 3oth at 10:00 am at St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Colorado Springs.
In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made to the American Cancer Society P.O Box 22718 Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73123-1718 or Pikes Peak Hospice Foundation, 825 E. Pikes Peak Suite 600, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903

(formally cam-cam)
Now samsue---long story...
After the rain stopped...we decided to meet up with Daddy, Grandma and Uncle Darren to go out to dinner at a new restaurant call Matitto's in the Frisco Square. I just have to show you these pictures of Sydnee at dinner that night!! I love it!! These of her and Nick are PRICELESS! My fav! Just sharing a sip of iced tea together.
She is such a ham and LOVES to play with every one's cell phones!! The one she has in these pictures is actually a toy phone that I'd bring for her to play with...but recently the batteries died on it and she quickly figured out that it wasn't a "real" phone so she is not into playing with it at all anymore. It's so funny that she doesn't even talk yet, but she knows to put the phone up to her ear and say "Yeah" and "uh humm". She sometimes takes the phone and pushes buttons with her thumbs and it looks like she's texting! Humm...wonder where she gets that from??
The last day of school this year was June 5th and it was on a Thursday. That next Friday we didn't do much but enjoy being able to sleep in.
Saturday June 7th was the RACE FOR THE CURE. http://www.raceforthecure.org/ in Plano at Legacy.Myself, the three girls went and met up with my mom. When I got there my brother met up with us as well and we all walked the 1 mile family fun run together. It was a beautiful day! The only thing that irks me was I forgot my camera. So here is some pictures of us at a past race we all walked in. Enjoy! (note Sydnee was not born yet! so she's not pictured)
The next week after the race we celebrated several birthdays and Father's day was on June 15th. Nick and I attended his bosses' 60th Birthday bash at Bent Tree C.C. Nick and Brian are head of the refinery at work and in the past they've always gotten Terry a really unique gift and this year they both knew they had to think of something really unique.
Well the night of the party Little had decided to take the girls in my car to her house. We were loading up the girls in the car in the driveway and Katelyn screamed out loud "WHAT'S THAT IN YOUR CAR DADDY!!" with a terrified look on her face too. He calmly said,"Oh that's just the monkey honey." I of course had no idea what the hey he was talking about, but sure enough he was right! It was a freaky looking monkey thing holding a sign in his truck! It was facing out the window and looked really weird! It kind of scared me too as it did Katelyn. But,... yes...this is the gift that was the talk of Terry's party. Brian and Nick thought they were so creative and just knew Terry would love this thing. We had to ride with this thing in the back seat of the truck...pull up to the valet and well, get the monkey out and carry him into the party. You should've seen the look on the young man at the valet,...the look on his face was priceless!
Mr. Valet sir, can you please hold the door we have to get the monkey out of the back seat.
So here is a few pix I took of Terry's 60th b-day bash! The monkey now lives with Terry at his home & I think he's sitting on his front porch! HA! What ever floats your boat Terry! Happy 60th! I'm just glad its not at my house scaring my children. (look at Nick's big smile...he really liked the monkey too I think)
OK ...I know I have more to catch up on but I think this post has just taken over my entire blog! So I'm going to post more later this weekend. I've got to tell all about Father's Day, my trip to Billy Bob's, our trip to Corpus Christi and Padre Island with Express cheer, dentists visits, 1st ortho visits and just some more Summer fun with the Smith's. I know it's so exciting isn't it? So I'll write again soon. For now it's getting late and I've gotta run... Syd is just to quiet so I know she's into something...I'd better go check it out!!
