Barbara Lou Warren's Obituary
Barbara Lou Warren, 85, of Kimball Twp. passed away peacefully on May 27, 2026 with her beloved cat in her lap and family at her side. She was born on May 7, 1941, in Sparlingville to the late Thomas and Evelyn (Shaw) Warren. Barbara retired from Kmart after 32 years of employment. She was known as “Barbie” by many co-workers and friends.
She devoted her life to her only child, Nancy; and grandchildren, Zakery (Amber) and Devin Harper. Later to continue that devotion to her two beautiful great grandchildren, Ronan and Zaina. Even though she turned all her attention to taking care of her family, she adored all of her nieces and nephews and longtime friend, Jerry Bechtel.
There was no limit to what Barbara would do for her family. A woman who was able to accomplish what some would consider too difficult or impossible. A beautiful soul that will be deeply missed but forever held close to heart by her adoring family.
