Barbara was a forty plus year member of the Hillcrest Baptist Church in Bellefontaine and had worked for the Palm Grill in Bellefontaine before going to work as a nurses aid at Logan Acres Care Center.  She loved lighthouses and enjoyed taking walks.  She loved time with her family, especially her grandchildren and liked to visit her friends and shut ins.  She was always a very generous lady with a big heart.  Later in life, she enjoyed watching old Westerns including Gunsmoke, Bonanza and the Andy Griffith Show.
