Barbara Elayne Vardaman

Barbara was a woman of many talents. She worked in many capacities to support the activities of her children. Cub Scouts, Webelos, Brownies, Little League Baseball, softball, and Westernaires became her passion.

No matter where they lived, she worked devotedly for her church. For many years, she cooked meals at church or in her home for people in need.

Barbara valued her friends and loved spending time with them playing bridge, hand and foot, or just laughing over a meal.

Barbara is preceded in death by her parents, Harley K. and Vera Mae Parker Howard, her husband, Marion Vardaman, her brother, Harley Jr. Howard, and her nephew, Brett Howard MacDonald.

Barbara is survived by her children, Craig Lindley Vardaman (Diana Murray), Kristin Elayne Vardaman, and Curtis Alan Vardaman (Denise), and grandchildren, Justin Vardaman (Sarah), Odean Vardaman, and Shanice Vardaman, as well as great-grandchildren; Taylor, Echo, and Nadya Vardaman, and sister, Beverly MacDonald (Jerold).
