Maxine Barber, a long-time resident of Tillamook, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Jan. 10, 2014. She was born June 16, 1925.
Maxine moved to Tillamook in 1942 with her parents from Denmark, KS, married Glenn Barber in 1949, and they moved to Brickyard Road where they raised their family. Maxine also raised various barnyard animals and most of the vegetables and berries that were part of their daily meals.
Maxine put her meticulous record keeping skills to good use as a bookkeeper for a couple of businesses in town as well as her church. Having grown up in the depression, she taught her family how to “make do” with what you have, stretching a dollar, a pot of soup, a piece of clothing etc., by re-purposing items long before it was popular to do so!
Closest to her heart were her family, her church, and her garden. She was also enjoyed a variety of other pursuits in her life, among them food preservation, cooking and baking, the Tillamook County Fair, square dancing, 4-H, and quality education for all. She had a good listening ear, and her smile was wide and authentic.
Maxine is survived by her three children, Ken Barber, Wayne Barber and Lois Wagner; grandchildren Seth and Adam Barber, Rebekah Hopkins, Solomon, Benjamin, and Matthew Barber, and Nathan and Brian Wagner; and great-grandchildren Emma and Vivian Barber.
A Celebration of Life memorial service will be held Saturday, Feb. 1, 2014 at 11 a.m., at the Tillamook United Methodist Church, 3808 Twelfth St., Tillamook, with a luncheon to follow. The family wishes to honor Maxine’s memory by offering houseplants to attendees at the service.
Her chosen charities are: Tillamook United Methodist Church Memorial Fund, and the Creation Vacation program of the Oregon Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church (a camping experience offered to inner city families who have few of their own resources).
