Barbara was born Sept. 3, 1938, in Waco, to Thomas A. and Dorothy P. (Moore) Reynolds. She was a Dorm Charge for the Mexia State School for 20 years, prior to retirement.
Barbara was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and sister. She enjoyed spending time with all her family, but there was nothing she cherished more than time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was also very fond of her companion, her cat (Little Sister). Barbara was very well known, by her family, as being a good supervisor and letting them know her opinion whenever she felt there was a need to express it.
Barbara was very outgoing, friendly and enjoyed life to the fullest. She liked to take road trips and loved watching the redbirds and woodpeckers. She was a longtime member of Prairie Hill Baptist Church.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas and Dorothy Reynolds; husbands, Thomas Baugh and Elwood Jones; daughter, Betty Baugh-Glick; and sister, Mary Helen Reynolds.
Barbara is survived by her loving daughters, Kathy Zaruba and husband Ron of Marlin, and Sharla Davis and husband John of Mexia; grandchildren, Thomas Britt and wife Sarah of Rangely, CO, Louis Lowrey Jr. of Riesel, John Wesley Davis and wife Bonny, of Conroe, Kristen Davis of Groesbeck, Khara Glick-Allen and husband Doug, of Dallas, Casey Glick, of Buffalo, and Kalyn Glick of Oakwood; great-grandchildren, Jayden Britt, Zoye Britt, Ashlyn Britt, Emma Davis, Ryan Davis and Kaeson Glick; and sister, Norma Reynolds of McGregor.
Barbara met two special people, Ana and Tameka, at the Fresenius Kidney Center, and she considered as her extended family.
