Barbara's journey began as the beloved daughter of the late Edmund and Gertrude Bennett. Her marriage to the late Leonard Doy for over 55 years was a testament to enduring love, and together they raised a family that would be her pride and joy. Though she faced the heartache of saying goodbye to her husband, her daughter Barbie, and her brothers Lewis, Clifford, and Bill Bennett, Barbara's strength and grace never wavered.

She leaves behind a legacy through her children: Michael (Tweet) Doy, Jackie (Bill) Thompson, and Rob Doy (Andrea). Her spirit will live on in the laughter and stories of her many grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, who will continue to cherish the memories they created together.
