Barbara and Joel, son of Harry and Clara Lutz, were married on June 20, 1955, followed by a reception regarded by all as "the best party of the year:' Whether at their home in Farmington Hills, Palm Beach, Fla., or Leland, Mich., Barbara was the consummate hostess for family and friends. A loving daughter and daughter-in- law, Barbara cared for all her parents until their deaths.
