Barbara attended Waukesha County Technical Institute for industrial machining and drafting degrees. She was creative and enjoyed sewing, snow sculpting, metal detecting and fishing with her mother, sons and grandsons. She was an accomplished and talented artist, finding beauty in the simplest things. Barb always found unique and thoughtful ways to show people she loved them.
