Barbara loved international travel visiting places like Dubai, England, Paris, Hawaii, and even traveling the mid-west by train with her sister Delores Ann. She loved cooking, especially baking. The family relied on Barbara to bring the desserts to family gatherings where she wowed the family with 8-layer cakes and many other fancy desserts.


Barbara was a very caring and generous person; often helping whenever and wherever she saw a need. She loved her nieces and nephews and they always excitedly anticipated receiving a gift from one aunt (Barbara) at certain holidays.
