Barbara Ann Coleman, age 71, died on Friday, September 07, 2001. Barbara was born in Winfield, a small town in southeast Iowa. She was the salutatorian of her high school graduation class and, as a senior, was a member of the high school sextet that won the national championship. She attended Iowa Wesleyan College in Mt. Pleasant Iowa, and was the president of her sorority, Pi Beta Phi, during her junior year. She transferred to the U. of Iowa for her senior year and graduated with a degree in speech pathology.
