Ellen was married to Crawford Barr for 67 years. She retired from Bell South after 30 years. Ellen was a faithful member of Grace Family Worship Center where she volunteered every Thursday. She was a warm, loving person who never met a stranger. One of Ellen’s greatest enjoyments in life was attending the sporting events for those that called her “Nana.” She loved all children as if they were her own.

Left to cherish her memory is her husband, Crawford Barr; her children, Barbara and husband Barney, Robert and wife Rhonda, Jimmy, and Sue Ellen; her grandchildren, Erin and husband Jason, JD and wife Melissa, Ashley and Amber, Jamie and husband James, Grayson, Mason, Christy, Jeromy, and Eddie and wife Heather; her great grandchildren, Kloe, Madison, Riley, Leighton, Oliver, Lindsay, Haley, Crystal and Lindsey; her great-great grandchildren, Sadler, Isabella, Daniel, Korbin, Kamden, Kyler, and Keegan; her sister, Betty Jo; and several nieces and nephews.
