Barbara A. (Edelbute) McIntyre, 89, passed away on Veteran’s Day at her daughter, Kim Stephen’s home in Sacramento, Calif., surrounded by loving family. She was born in Altoona to Clyde O. and Rachel Edelbute. She married her high school sweetheart, Richard “Dick” (aka “Mac”) McIntyre, in 1952 in Germany, where Mac was stationed with the U.S. Air Force.
Surviving are her daughter, Kim; two sons: Michael and Terry; grandchildren, great-grandchildren; nieces; nephews; and “adopted” family members. She was preceded in death by her husband; brothers: Clyde Edelbute Jr. (killed in battle in WWII) and William Edelbute; and sisters: Virginia “Ginny” Appleman and Jeannette “Gussy” Carr.
Barb and Mac graduated from Altoona High School in 1950. They frequently returned to Altoona for class reunions. Mac was a career Air Force sergeant. After living in various U.S. locations, including Altoona, the family permanently settled in Sacramento in 1967.
Barb was a gifted artist, creating many paintings in multiple mediums. She was an avid golfer and loved raising pedigree boxer pups. She and Mac were very active in their local Elks lodge. Barb created a large extended family by welcoming others, now considered family members. Her gracious, fun spirit and warm smile will be greatly missed by all.
Arrangements are by Sierra View Funeral Chapel, Carmichael, Calif. Interment is at Sacramento Valley National Cemetery, Dixon, Calif. Donations may be made in Barb’s name to the AASD Alumni Foundation, 1415 Sixth Ave., Altoona, PA 16602.
