Barb enjoyed working her butt off, most recently for the past ten years at Kwik Shop. Most of all, she enjoyed every minute spent with her family, especially watching the grandkids at their events. In a rare spare moment, she could be found working on a crochet project. Barb will be missed by all who knew and loved her. She was preceded in death by her father. The family would like to extend a sincere thank you to the staff at UnityPoint Hospice, especially Tiffany, for their generous care of Barb.

  4. As children we always had fun. Being childhood neighbors for over 20 years and then becoming family when my grandfather married her mom making Barbara my Aunt, lol. Being so close in age we could laugh about that. Her joyous out look on life, her bright smile, love of her family and friends will be missed. I recently told her that my hair was turning curly with the gray coming in more and she told me I deserve that for making fun of her curly hair. I remember others making fun of her hair but I loved it because it was curly and mine was straight as a board and I couldn’t do much with it. She said the same about my hair how she wished she had the straight hair. Our fathers use to build dirt race cars at one time…” The Friti Bandito”. We had some great memories growing up. I will miss you more then you will know and will regret that we didn’t spend more time together as we got older. Love to you and condolences to your family.
