A woman of strong will and unwavering spirit, Barbara found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She had a passion for sewing and building and creating new things. Her creative talents extended to crafting and decorating, reflecting her love for making a house into a warm and welcoming home. She also was a big fan of the New Orleans Saints football team and faithfully cheered them on every week. She loved reading and always had a passion for learning about new and different things. However, nothing brought more joy to her than visits with her family.
