Barbara could often be found in the kitchen, preparing meals for large groups, always ensuring that everyone felt welcome, loved, and part of her family. She had a gift for making every gathering feel like a warm and cherished occasion. ''Monday Night Dinner'' was a tradition that spanned decades, a testament to her dedication to family. No matter how busy life became, Barbara always made time for these special moments where family could come together, share stories, and enjoy a meal. She never hesitated to volunteer for after-school pick-up, often bringing her grandchildren and their friends to Braum's. Whether it was a school day or an afternoon outing, she always had a large enough vehicle and she always wanted us to drive her car. As we say goodbye to Barbara, we remember her with gratitude and love. Her spirit will live on in the stories we tell, the traditions we keep, and the love we carry forward.
Pallbearers: Tim Jones, Taylor Jones, Trenton Jones, Cody Converse, Justin Martin, Don Partridge.
