Barbara was born February 5, 1938 in Ionia, Michigan to John W. and Frances (Gallagher) Young. She was a resident of the Key Training Center since 1981. Barb loved to ride her 3 wheeled bike all over the campus, delivering lunches and mail. When she could no longer ride her bike, she was going places in her power chair, which had only one speed...fast! Barb loved money, fast cars, babies and action movies. She enjoyed going out to dinner and shopping especially for Toys For Tots. She had a heart of gold. Barbara was preceded in death by her parents and is survived by her brother Robert L. (Joyce) Young of Lecanto, FL, sister Rusty (Paul) McKee of Inglis, FL, 3 nephews, 2 nieces, 3 grand nephews, 8 grand nieces and 1 great grand nephew.
