Barb was a very loving person to all that knew her. She adored her family, especially her grands. She could be quiet, but ornery at the same time. She loved going to the beach and had a general fondness for picking up shells along the way. She would also enjoy a good Amish life book, puzzle and word search books. Barbara attended Bellefontaine First Family Church in which her grandson Pastor Justin Cluck will preform her celebration of life.
