Barbara was a faithful volunteer at the We Care Mission in Morton where her warm smile and loving heart will be greatly missed by the people she worked with and the families that she served. Her presence will be greatly missed at Cooper Farms, where she loved to help her family do what ever was needed. Barbara’s memory will always be a part of Morton Schools where she greeted children everyday for 14 years as they came through the lunch line and as she drove the children to and from school on the bus safely each day. She will be greatly missed by all who loved and knew her.
