Dr. Barbara Holmes was a beloved and transformative figure within the CAC community. Known affectionately as ‘Dr. B,’ she played an integral role as one of the first to join the mission as a core faculty member, deeply impacting those she served through her wisdom and presence. Her loss leaves a significant void, but her legacy continues to inspire.
