Despite facing recent health issues, Barb remained strong-willed and fought with determination. She cherished her immediate and extended family, finding joy in spending time with them.

In her free time, Barb enjoyed dancing, particularly polka dancing, which brought her immense happiness. She also had a love for playing canasta.
