Barbara Jean Deckard

Barbara Jean Deckard, born May 7, 1954, of Austin Texas, passed away on March 16, 2016 surrounded by her family. She was loved by many friends and family for her generous heart and bubbly personality. Barbara's greatest joy was time spent with her grandchildren, from cheering at every ball game, to giving each of them love and support; she could be counted on to make each grandchild feel special.

Known to them as their 'Nana', she is survived by her grandchildren Andrew, Mason, Luke, Logan, Emery and Olyvia. She will be terribly missed by all.
