Barbara was born on November 11, 1937, in Rusk County, Texas. She was the daughter of Mickey and Ruth Weaver. On January 5, 1968, Barbara married Kenneth Dale Pritchett and together, they had two sons, Kyle and Mike. They lived in Arlington for many years until the 1990s, when they moved to Granbury, where they enjoyed views of the Brazos River, time spent with wonderful friends and neighbors, and welcoming their sons home for visits. In addition to being a devoted and loving mother and wife, Barbara enjoyed playing the piano, painting, and working in her flower garden. She will be forever loved and affectionately be remembered as the family matriarch and a 'mother to many.'
Barbara is survived by her sons, Kyle and wife Sharokina Pritchett, and Mike and wife Brandy Pritchett; and by her sister, Rita Sue Weaver. In addition to her parents, Barbara was preceded in death by her husband Kenneth Pritchett in 2015.

Growing up in Grand Prairie and Arlington, we were neighbors. Barbara was like a second mother to me. Barbara, Ken and my parents would play marbles and drink peach fuzzes. I babysat Kyle and Mike even though I am not sure how much older I was! I have fond memories of the whole Pritchett family and am sorry for your loss. Barbara was a wonderful person!

In the fifties,Barbara was staying with our family in Houston. It was a Sunday night and Elvis Presley's 1st TV appearance on The Ed Sullivan show. She went crazy when he came on. I was ten years younger and didn't understand what all the craziness was about ! Indelible memories.

I remember Barbara as Rita's big sister. We had some adventures over the years. My condolences to her sons. She will missed by many.
