She was very loyal to her family and a very loving person to all.
Barbara owned a retail candy store in Crossroads Mall for 25 years. She gave all of her children and grandchildren the opportunity to make spending money by working at the store selling popcorn. She taught us all how to have a strong work ethic and how to manage our money.
She always helped us with anything we needed and couldn’t do.
All she ever asked from us was never drink the last Dr. Pepper!
She was a long standing member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
She always taught us to remember that family is forever.
We love you and will miss you, but we will see you again in your beautiful robes in Heaven.
