Barbara was the type of person who simply lived her best life. She was the life of every party, her smile was contagious, and she had a signature laugh you could pick out of a crowd with your eyes closed. She was always on the go, and her family lovingly referred to her as their “Energizer Bunny” as she could do circles around anyone. She loved to shop till she dropped, always knowing where to find the best deals, and she especially loved staying out all night on Black Friday shopping. Barbara was also a dedicated Tennessee Titans fan, and going to games with her sister Tonya was always an activity they both cherished. Barbara’s family was her life, and she never missed a family event. She loved her nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews dearly and cherished all her time with them. Barbara lived life to the fullest, and she will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
