Barbara had an untouched humble loving spirit; she loved the word of God and applied it to her own life...Humility, Faith, Love Unconditionally, Forgive and Give Ungrudgingly. She was not only called mom by her own children she was also called mom by so many. Her home was the gathering place for sleepovers, family game night, holiday dinners and so much more. She would sit up all night just to prepare for the gathering then stay up to entertain the next day. She enjoyed spending time with & loving on her family and traveling.
