Barbara Ann Lawhorn

She was a loving and devoted wife, mother and grandmother who at the young age of sixteen met the love of her life, Glenn, and moved from Florida to North Carolina to begin their life together. She enjoyed sewing, putting puzzles together, reading, punch embroidery, and visiting the mountains and metal detecting at the beach with her husband.

She was preceded in death by her father, Kenneth Woodard; her mother, Millie Parker; her husband, Glenn Franklin Lawhorn; and her son, Glenn Thomas Lawhorn.
