Barbara was a native of Baton Rouge, LA. She relocated to South Carolina 35 years ago and considered it home. She loved her family unconditionally. She also loved to travel and would use the smallest reason (or no reason at all) to take a trip. She earned her nursing degree at age 45. This was one of the proudest days of her life. Barbara attended Life Tabernacle.
Barbara is survived by her children: David Maness (Katie), Sandra Dixon, and Amy Martinez; grandchildren: Matt (Brittany), Aubrey (Kylie), Austen (Nichole), Blake (Jordan), Ben (Samantha), and Chelsea (Jacob); great-grandchildren: Emmett, Everett, Raelynn, Ava, Marlee, Emerson, Ella, Sawyer, Paisley, Bentley, Tinsley, and Coley; brothers: Don Shelton (Anne), Paul Shelton (Velma), and Keith Shelton (Tracy); sisters: Hope Elmore (Glen) and Cindy Cooper (Joe); and special family friend: Brian Whitney.
She was preceded in death by her parents: James Donald Shelton and Mamie Robertson; brothers: Richard Shelton, Wayne Shelton, and George Shelton.
