Barbara (aka Grandma Barb) died at home with family at her side, Thursday August 31, 2017. Born in Seattle to Richard and Odessa Wiseman, Barbara worked in several fields over her lifetime. Having worked at Wiseman's Cafe, F W Woolworth, and Fircrest School, she made her last career change to Funeral Director at Butterworth-Arthur A. Wright at the ripe "young" age of 73. A career perfectly suited to her caring, compassionate personality.
Preceded in death by husband Robert L. Cannon, sister, Shirley Holt and her husband, James Barry Holt. She is survived by children Richard Cannon, Anita Riggins (Ronnie), Odessa Cannon, and Dale Cannon (Carol), 10 grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, and best friend Antonio Perici.
