Obituary of Barbara Booth

IN LOVING MEMORY OF BARBARA BOOTH Barbara Booth, 89, a lifelong resident of Norton, passed away September 29, 2012, in Leavenworth, Kansas. She was born Barbara Skrdlant, on July 15, 1923, and had one sister and seven brothers whose companionship, comfort, and humor she always treasured. Her husband of almost six decades, Leo Booth, passed away in 2005. She leaves to cherish her memory her children, Ron, of Leavenworth, Wayne, of Branson, Missouri; Larry, of McClouth, Kansas; and Carlene, of Midlothian, Virginia; and their families including her many grandchildren who were a source of great joy to her. Having not had the opportunity for advanced education themselves, she and her husband nevertheless passed on to their children their belief in the value and privilege of education, and were proud that all their children obtained college degrees. She greeted every day with good cheer and enthusiasm for the opportunities that lay ahead, through her last day on this Earth when she suddenly, but peacefully, passed on. Throughout her life, she always said that she would not change a thing. We would not have changed a thing about her, and we will miss her dearly.
