Barbara Ann McGuire. 76, returned to her heavenly home on August 6, 2016 surrounded by her family. She had a strong faith in our Lord, and held firm to her beliefs throughout her life and during her battle with Parkinson's.

Being loyal to her beloved south end, she spent the majority of her working career within the same neighborhood she grew up in. She started her working career at the age of 14 working at Fountain Drug Store at the soda fountain. After graduating from high school, she then worked at Seagraves until they closed returning to Fountain Drug Stores as a manager until they closed. Barbara finished her long career when she retired from Wassestrom Small Wares in 2004.
