Funeral services for Gala Ann Clucas Barnett were held July 6 at Atwood Family Chapel in Greybull. Gala, 75, died July 1 at the Advanced Care Hospital of Montana in Billings. Gala suffered a major stroke in 2004 and remained in poor health until her death.
Gala, the daughter of Eileen Loyer, was born Aug. 14, 1939, in Basin; she was later adopted by Donald and Wanda Clucas. She received her education in Greybull and graduated from Greybull High School in 1957.

After graduating from high school, Gala enrolled in a cosmetology school in Denver where she met and married Lee Johnson. The couple had three sons. After Lee’s death, Gala and two sons moved back to Greybull. Her third son was handicapped and remained in a home in Denver.
