I was heartbroken when I heard the news...but I stopped and thought of all the love she gave...and received over her career and I smiled. She gave me something that "thank you Babs" just won't cover. I hope they have limitless lipstick in heaven for her...I hope I made her proud...God knows I shocked her enough. All of my love to her family.

Dear Carla,
We were so sorry to learn about your loss of your dear mother. I lost my mother last year at the ripe age of 91, but even then
I wish she was still here. We know they are in a much better place in the Lord's home, so we rejoice for them in the midst of our heartache.
      Much love,       Lawson and Frank Kelly

Dearest Jerry, Carla Allison & Ashlie Dell, This will be difficult for me. How do I begin to express how I felt about this incredible woman who had such a huge impact on my life? I was a young country girl moving to the big city of Macon to start my adult life enrolled in Radiology School at The Medical Center of Central Georgia. She was the first true professional woman I had ever met, and learned quickly the value of being on time, dress in a professional manner (white uniform/white hose/white shoes)and certainly above ALL else NEVER show up without your lipstick on baby. She was beautiful with that red hair, green eyes, and perfect lipstick everytime. She lived the motto "never let them see you sweat". My Radiology class of five was extremely close to her in & outside of school(but in school she was hard on us and we didn't get away with much). She did admit to me that WE were her favorite class of all time (July 1979-1981)sorry and no disrespect to hundreds of former students but we had a connection I cannot explain. She pushed us further than most (we all know that was because Andy was in our class)(the bosses son) and because of that we were better for it and our registry scores were impressive.That morning at Grady Hospital we over heard others talking when they found out what school we were from "NO ONE EVER FAILS THE REGISTRY FROM THAT SCHOOL"! It was ALL we needed to hear before taking that 4 hour test. It was HER teaching, HER intruction that made us who we are are as Radiographers today. She expected excellence, demanded it.She was MY BIGGEST cheerleader. When I came for my interview to school everyone was "beautiful" and leaving that day after I had literally sweat through my dress onto the "slay seat" having endured the interview process with Mr. Brown I remember thinking "well it would have been a nice career to get into". Never in a million years believing I had a chance to be accepted until I received that letter giving me instructions on what day to report for school, what to wear, etc. Later she would always say "he saw something in you". My answer to this day to that is yeah he saw loyalty and someone who would NEVER leave the establishment 1979-to present. I'm still here. Trying to keep the dream alive. At least a little bit of it anyway, the way SHE would want things to be taught.She was a private person, but she never shut me out. I was part of her family always. And for that I will be forever grateful. I got to spend time with her, learn from her, seek counsel on life matters. I treasure my private talks with her to the end of her life on this earth. She was good to me, truly LOVED me. Believed in me when I didn't believe in myself. Even now I hear her voice in my head saying "yes you can"! I am selfish to want to keep her here of course. And some nights after the red wine has set in I talk to her (and The Colonel) telling both of them "yes I know, life goes on, don't quit, carry on, keep going, we all must die and face the judgement. But I will miss them for the rest of MY life. I tried to get her to cuss just once (it NEVER happened) I told her it was such a great release of stress sometimes, but of course all I ever got was a "I'll be John Brown"! (whatever that means) and "MY WORD"! Thank you for sharing this incredible woman with me. Thank you for those LAST hours you allowed me in. On a personal note to Jerry I want to say you are a saint and I believe you will have a straight ticket to heaven for being what a true husband should be until the end. In her sickness & her health. She told me you had been a WONDERFUL husband. I saw it myself, and I thank you for every minute you cared for her and waited on her with love. Carla & Ashlie I have had the privilege of watching you grow into two beautiful Christian women, choose your husbands wisely and raise what I know will be a continuation of the legacy your beloved mother would want.When you visit her gravesite and see tubes of lipstick left behind know that I was there, still seeking counsel from my teacher and friend. Love ya'll.

My heart is very heavy from the news of Barbara's transition from this life.   She and her entire family have been so good to me for so many years.  She has truly left an impact on so many lives.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all and will continue to be.  Love to Jerry, Carla, Ashlie, Lonice, Lynward and Beverly and all the extended family.

Dear Barrett & Mobley family, May you remember the best and the humorous times and the great love she had for you as you gather. Love Marie Lewis

I was sorry to hear about Barbara passing away! She was a wonderful person and a very good friend of my parents.  She was good to us girls when we were younger and in fact taught my sister at the Medical Center many years ago! sending love and prayers to all of the family!

Dear Family & Friends,
I was saddened to hear of the death of Barbara Wright Mobley, yet filled with joy because she is now in the presence of our Lord & Savior.   There are many words and phrases that can be used to describe this wonderful woman; gracious, kind, compassionate, strength, integrity, devotion, motivated, tough love, determined, Christ like and so many more.  I was a student in the MCCG School of X-Ray Technology (class 1980) and Barbara was the instructor.  Although I learned content related to x-ray from this wonderful woman, I learned a lot from her that was never taught in a textbook.  Since graduation from MCCG, I've obtained Bachelor's, Master's and a Doctoral degree, yet I've never had an instructor make the impact on my life that Barbara Wright Mobley did.  She left an indelible mark on my life and my life is fuller and richer because of me knowing her.  Heaven's gain of this wonderful woman is Earth's loss. A quote by Thomas Campbell summarizes succinctly her life "To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die".  She will never die because she will live in our hearts forever.

Dear Jerry and Family: 

I was so sorry to hear that Barbara had passed away and I was very glad that I was able to share in the service for Barbara, her family and her friends.  It was a wonderful and moving experience to be in the midst of that level of love, faith and peace.   Best wishes to all who loved Barbara so much and were loved so much by her.

Jerry, I'm so sorry to hear of your wife's passing.  Even though we never met I feel like I knew her.  We both shared this enemy cancer but I was encouraged by how she persevered.  I pray that you will find comfort in the love you two shared.  Janice

Jerry and family, we are so sorry to learn of Barbara's passing.  As members of Ingleside, we always looked forward to seeing her radiant smile.  We don't remember one time that she frowned.  She had the personality that would brighten up a room and subsequently, we were all better for it.   We will miss her so, so much.
We are praying for you and your family.

I was saddened to hear of Ms Barbara Jean's passing.  As a former student at MCCG School of Radiologic Technology, she was instrumental in shaping the tech that I am today. She was a great teacher and mentor to a great many of us and for that, I'm grateful. To Carla and Ashlie and to the rest of the family and friends, I'm so very sorry for your loss. May you take comfort in the Lord during your time of sorrow. Heaven has another beautiful angel watching over us.

Don & I just learned of Barbara's home going today. We were saddened for you, Jerry, & your family. She was a remarkable lady with a beautiful smile & always delighted to share about Jesus. She will be missed. You're all in our prayers at this difficult time.

Such a sad loss.  Such precious memories left behind.  God bless her family.

Carla, Ashlie, & families,  I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I knew her during her service at New Providence Baptist Church in Jeffersonville, Georgia. I remember thinking of how beautiful she was in looks, but most of all in her heart. When my family would visit my Aunt Ruby Williams at New Providence, I always looked forward to seeing Barbara. I want you both to know my thoughts are with you & your families. May your memories of your lovely mother bring you some comfort during this time of sorrow.

I was one of the many students that Barbara taught at the Medical Center School of Radiologic Technology and she taught us so much more than x-ray! She was a true friend and mentor to us and I will be forever thankful to her.  My lifelong career was developed through her.  She was always a Lady and set such a good example throughout her life.

My heart aches at the loss of this dear friend.

Carla and Ashlie I was saddened to here of Barbara's passing. She was by far one of the most loving and beautiful women I have ever known and she loved her Lord Jesus Christ and lived it. I know you will miss her terribly but she will always be with you. Love you both. Ms. Lynne

I learned about bones and x-rays from this lovely woman.  My life changed so much getting my certification and entering the health field.  Thank you, Ms. Barbara Wright, for accepting an "older" student into the program!  We had a blast in her classes.  Peace be with you and may God help comfort your family and friends during this time.  Love, Patty Clay Thorne

Jerry I am so sorry to hear of Barbara's death. I think back to all the good days we all shared at Ingleside. May God bless you and comfort you during these difficult times

We shared the same age and the same type cancer.  I know you are at rest now and happy with our Lord.  Bless your family, I know they will miss you terribly, like we all will.

Carla, Ashlie and family, love and prayers as you face each day with strength and faith in our God.

Bobby and Melanie Murray. Barbara will surely be missed by her family and friends at Ingleside and loved ones. We keep you in our prayers. Love You

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

My sympathy goes out to all her family, but my praise to God for loving her home.
Cathy Corrigan

Carla and Ashlie,
  I am truly sadden to hear of your mama's passing. Ms. Barbara was a beautiful woman inside and out and she will be greatly missed by many. You both were her everything. I pray you both find peace and comfort in your faith.God is with you and I truly hope you feel his presence with you always. Your mama will forever be with you. You and your families are in my thoughts and prayers. Sending much love your way.

Words cannot express my gratitude to the Lord for this precious friend and mentor. She taught me strength and compassion. She encouraged me and poured the truth and love of Chrsit into my spirit. Oh how happy I am to know that she is standing with her faithful and sustaining Savior, healed and fully restored! I can't wait to worship again with her for eternity.

Our hearts and prayers go out to the family.  Barbara was a beautiful woman inside and out is with the Lord now and we will see her again.

Barbara's family has our heartfelt sympathy as they walk through "the valley of the shadow of death."  Even when we expect death to come, we generally live in denial and exert every prayer and energy to stave it off.  But the glory of Barbara's life centered in her undying faith in our mutual Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  My mother, Dorothy Brooks Blizzard, and Barbara's mother, Eudelle Barrett were sisters, making us cousins.  We were reared with their examples of Christ-likeness and know that because He lives, Barbara lives, too.  Judy studied under Barbara when she was in training to be a Radiologic Technologist.  Our memories are vivid but our faith in Jesus Christ moreso!  I believe she took her last breath here today and her next one in the presence of our Heavenly Father!  Now she is more alive than ever!  She cannot come back to us, but with her same kind of faith, we all can go to where she is in God's timing.  May the Lord bless all of her family beyond measure and may we all be better because she was in our lives.  Dr. Charles Michael and Judy Blizzard,  Cornerstone Baptist Church,  Macon
