As a young girl Barbara Jean lived on a farm in Groveport, Ohio and was surrounded by farm animals and horses. Her love of animals continued throughout her life as well as the love of her hometown Groveport, where she was lucky enough to live most of her life. Barbara Jean was a Groveport Madison High School, Class of 1947 graduate. Barbara Jean loved to sing and was graced with a beautiful voice.

She also believed in “Giving Back” and chose her service as a volunteer for local hospitals. Barb volunteered at St. Anthony (Park Medical/Ohio State East) Hospital for over 15 years and at Mount Carmel East Hospital for over 30 years.
