Barbara Hare Scott, born in Narrows, Virginia, passed away at age 66. A miracle of God, Barbara was strong in fighting a life-long and courageous battle of health problems. She inspired everyone who knew her, especially her family. A lady who consistently put others before herself, Barbara loved to take care of her family and will always be known for loving the holidays where she would decorate her home and prepare a feast for her family and friends. Barbara made it her mission to help others where she would take food and share her crafts that she so passionately made with love that touched people’s hearts. Barbara was very active in her church and enjoyed teaching Sunday school. She was a loving and caring person to many people and she will be greatly missed by her family, friends and anyone that ever met her.
