was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She was
an exceptional mother who was very active in the lives of
her children. As her children grew and had families of their
own, that love and dedication grew to include her cherished
grandchildren and great-grandchildren. From school and
sporting events to holiday parties and get togethers, Barbara
had the ability to make every occasion special. Barbara enjoyed
to travel the US and spend time at the lake. She also enjoyed
playing cards with friends. She was a wonderful cook and
took great pleasure in making meals for her family and friends.
Barbara had such a kind, sweet soul and never met a stranger.

Barbara was very inspirational and had many words of wisdom
to offer to those around her. She would often remind her loved
ones, "Don't sweat the small stuff." She was also very strong in
