This site is in memory of Barbara Guest. Images of Barbara's life are organized by theme in the "Lifestories" section.
Barbara and her twin Ann were born to Gertrude and Freddie Maylott on December 27, 1926. After several years of bookkeeping and teaching, Barbara traveled the world as a Children's Hostess for the Orient Line. It was at sea that she met her future husband Dr. Norman James Guest and his son Gordon. Barbara was mother to Tina and Philip, grandmother to Sam and Max and family to Gordon, Rebecca & Duncan.
Barbara's enthusiasm for life, openness to adventure and generous heart will continue to be an inspiration.
Bon Voyage!

Thoughts
To me, she (Barbara) has always been 'Gug', a name that my brother Duncan gave her when he was small and which stuck in our family ever since. And James was Mr Gug!
Dear loving Father God,
We thank you for the life of precious Barbara and for all she meant to us.
Please help all her family and friends as they grieve and comfort them with knowing that she is no longer in pain or distress but in your loving hands.
We thank you for all the endless kindness and love, the fun and care that she gave to us and to so many, along with her lovely husband James. You blessed her with so many talents and abilities.
Thank you for the blessing of her life and for all our memories of her which remain.
Amen
I do pray it all goes well and will be thinking of you.
Love Cressida
