Circleville Barbara Ann (Parr) Bigam was born in Lakewood, Ohio on April 23, 1952, to Robert Hamilton Parr and Martha Jean (Holcker) Parr. After graduating from Crestline High School, Barb went to Capital University where she majored in elementary education and met her future husband, Greg. The two were married on June 22, 1974 and settled down in Circleville, Ohio, where they both began their careers and started their family.

Barb was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, friend, and teacher. She escaped her earthly pain on September 9, 2024, at age 72. She is survived by her adoring husband, Gregory; daughter Melissa (Jeremy); sons Brian (Nicole) and Matthew (Kelsey); grandchildren Maddux, Lydia, Glavine, Lucia and Kimbrel; brother Robert Parr Jr. (Eileen); and many loving relatives and friends.
