Barbara Ann Dean lost her battle with congestive heart failure Friday, December 14, 2018 at the young age of 81. Born to Jessie and Emma Gober on November 7, 1937. She attended Richland Springs High School. Barbara loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, sisters, nieces and nephews more than anything.

The love she had for her family and the love they have for her is unsurmountable, and their hearts will forever have an empty space with her gone.
