‘I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race, I have kept the Faith’ II Timothy 4:7
Barbara was a devout Christian and had a deep, personal connection to her savior. She never went a day without reading her scripture and spending time in prayer. Aside from single-handedly raising her four children, Barbara enjoyed giving to those in need and being a blessing to those around her. She devoted much of her life to outreach and missionary work.
Barbara had a big bright smile, infectious to those around her; kind, caring heart and gentle hand. Our world is dimmer without her in it.
A memorial service is planned to be held at a later date.
