A kind, caring woman of faith, she attended the National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette in Attleboro, and volunteered at Sturdy Memorial Hospital. She was a member of the N.R.A. and the Republican National Committee. Barbara was a voracious reader who enjoyed gardening, taking walks in nature, trips to New Hampshire and Vermont, playing the piano, painting, drawing, photography, ceramics in New Hampshire, and especially spending time with her cherished family.

In addition to her husband, David, she leaves her loving children: Valerie (Elliott) Lewis and her husband, Richard Lewis, of Barre, VT; and Rick Elliott and his wife, Linda (Sweetland) Elliott, of Attleboro, MA. She was the proud and adoring grandmother of five grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild.
