Barbara worked had in getting Roy's back catalogue released just as Michele has done with Matt's.
Thank you for that Barbara and rest in peace.

i do not know if I heard correctly, but i thought they said she was only 60, which surprised me-although i know he wass married previously.
i have quite a few Roy Orbison records, because George was a big fan--one of our favourites was "You got it" which Chis Evans played this week, after the sad news.

Yes Barbara was only 37 when Roy passed away in 1988. I don't think Barbara ever re-married, instead devoting her life to the memory of her husband............ 37 was a very young age to be left a single mother

.................................. such a tragic end for her.........RIP Barbara
Here is a nice photo of Barbara with Patti Page

Very sad news. An attractive lady and relatively young too.
