    I’d known Barb for 31 years but hadn’t seen her in the last 4 so this came as quite a shock ! I have never known a more compassionate and caring person than Barb; what a genuine loving Christian woman she was! Barb could deliver bad news in such a way that she lightened the recipient’s load by sharing their grief. What a loss for us; but she’s shining so brightly in Heaven

    Barb and I had some fun adventures during our early Blessing Xray days. I haven’t seen Perry in probably 35 yrs but I’m so glad I got a hug from Barb on my last visit to Blessing before Jill Hooper’s retirement. Rest In Peace Barb❤️

    I’ve known who Barb was for about 9 years, but really worked close with her in the last 3-4 years. Barb never would credit herself. She gave credit to her staff and stood up for them. When there was an issue, Barb would address that patient in person and would always apologize. Barb would always be there to help assist with anything when I asked. This world could use more Barb Mayfields. She will be truly missed. Prayers to Perry and the family. (Including Windy and Walter)

    What a sweet girl! One I enjoyed high school with and lots of laughs!
    Haven’t seen her since I graduated, but I know she was a special lady and will certainly be missed by all those she knew in life. Rest in peace, Barb. XO and my deepest condolences to the family.

    Love that smile.. Barb was such a wonderful person. I had the pleasure of having Barb as one of my radiology teachers, mentors, and leaders over the last 20 years. She was always so encouraging and was there to help me. She will be greatly missed by her Blessing Radiology family.
