Besides making her mark in the classroom, she was known as Aunt Barbara to many nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews.

She is survived by an aunt; brother –in-laws; and sister-in-laws. She left a legacy of love and acceptance. Her final wishes were that everyone would be kind to one another and love one another.
