We both lived on Canyon Road ...I love Barta Heiner! We both lived on Canyon Road in Ogden, Utah growing up. We acted together in some high school productions at Ben Lomond High School. She and I were in Cinderella; we played two of the ugly step sisters. Interesting because my feet were way smaller than Cinderella's. We did Hansel and Gretal as well. She was Gretal and my brother, Jim played Hansel. Mostly I just loved hanging out with Barta. We have remained friends over these many years and indeed I feel honored to know such an amazing woman. ❤️ whenever I am in Utah we try to get together to catch up on what is happening in one another's lives. I cannot wait to see "Once I was a Beehive". For us the Beehive mantra was "Greet the day with a song, make others happy and serve gladly ". A natural gift of Barta's. I agree with everyone else who has written on this Blog, that is, I Know Barta Heiner! She is indeed awesome! She is also one of the kindest individuals I have ever known. I repeat: "I love Barta Heiner"!

She was my acting professor at BYU over 35 years ago. She is a legend and an amazing actress and kind person.(She also has an a beautiful singing voice.) My daughters grew up knowing her name and her movies and cartoon voiceovers and radio dramas, etc, etc...When they were little I took them to a premiere of a film she was in and introduced them to her. They were in awe:) They speak her name in reverence in our home...haha.

I liked her then and I like her now and I'm totally jealous that you met her at her very own house and practically stole her t.v. for only 13 dollars. Your post cracked me up, and I'm pretty sure I had the same seriously psycho roommates.<br />Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843214765647957144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088658496918317377.post-3806395878409597722012-02-15T11:43:45.774-08:002012-02-15T11:43:45.774-08:00pacriHow absolutely wonderful!
I…that’s a shouted,...pacriHow absolutely wonderful!<br />I…that’s a shouted, underlined “I”…I would love to hear your other Barta Heiner Story. I was looking up old friends and stumbled on your blog. Most excellent, by the way.<br />Barta was a friend of mine at BYU, late 60’s….my roommate and most of my friends were drama students, that’s how I first met her. I was in the art department, same building (which was new back then) but a thousand miles apart in how we plied our craft. Not that the Arts don’t overlap quite a bit now and then.<br />I know your post was a long time ago….but if you would share, I would love to listen….uh, read.<br />Thanks.Sunny Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05903964406201899686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088658496918317377.post-81714694986159676922008-10-21T16:30:00.000-07:002008-10-21T16:30:00.000-07:00Thank you Steph!!!

She's always in my mind, you know, I've never forgotten her and the way you put that into words gave her all the glory she deserve!!!! Good old Garrett. And those roommates were psycho. Let's hope they don't read this! And fyi, that off campus apt we moved into wasn't BYU approved. You remember that grief they gave us??? But the couch was lovely. And remember that mouse friend we had in our dryer???!!!!Jaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14273976959216042263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088658496918317377.post-70335075357665290802008-10-14T21:20:00.000-07:002008-10-14T21:20:00.000-07:00haha!

I got my son's shirt at Old Navy. I love their kid clothes because when they go on sale I can actually afford them. This particular day Emma pooped her outfit as we were leaving the store. I hadn't bought anything for her and so we had to go back into Old Navy and get her something to wear that wasn't poop-covered.Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01078158663459610289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088658496918317377.post-5156365562610799032008-10-14T15:07:00.000-07:002008-10-14T15:07:00.000-07:00College stories!
