Bill and Barbara enjoyed spending time working on their house and yard. Barbara was happiest when she was with family. She found joy sitting on her back patio watching the birds and admiring different wildlife. She loved to be out on her boat and fishing with her grandchildren.
Barbara had the ability to see the beauty in everyone and she never met a stranger. Her love for her family and friends was deep and endless – anyone she loved, knew it!
