We regret to announce the sudden passing of Barbara at the University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton.                                                                                                               

Originally from Winnipeg, she moved to Alberta and started a family. Barbara was a loving mother and wife who always enjoyed her home life, with a flair and talent for cooking and decorating. She also loved the company of and caring for her several pets over the years, but none more than the last, her rescued Old English Sheepdog, Walter (Wally).                                                                                                     

In recent years, health issues were a concern, but Barbara recovered sufficiently to continue with a happy life and pursuit of her pleasures, including seeking out vintage and antique items at boutiques, markets and nurseries, adding to the decor and warmth of her home, particularly during the festive seasons.                            

She will be greatly missed by her husband Rick, sons; Jesse (Marilou), Riley (Leah) and granddaughters; Cassandra and Anna.                                                                               

Cremation has taken place, there will be no service.
