She grew up in Iowa and graduated from Gale Ettrick High School. It was a small own and small school, so everyone was very close.
She moved to Prescott, AZ where she worked at Wolfe Publishing for many years. It was in Prescott that she met and married Bill White. Bill was a pilot for Delta Airlines, so they enjoyed traveling. After Bills retirement, they enjoyed splitting their time between Arizona and Oregon.
Barbara had a love for collectibles and was an exceptional knitter. She loved to spend time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Mabel Lovig, her brother Donald Lovig, husband Bill White and daughter Colleen Bergsten.
She is survived by her daughter, Angela Perez, sons-in-law Robert Perez and Stephen Bergsten, her grandchildren Ryan Martinez, Tyler Bergsten, Rachel Miller, Brittany Bezanson and great grandchildren Stella, Madison, Aubrey, Aria, Noah, Arley and Olivia.
She will be missed and will always remain in our hearts.
