Barbara Bowman Marshall

Barbara Bowman Marshall, 87, passed away peacefully on January 26, 2025, in the comfort of her loving family. Born on January 6, 1938, in Dubach, LA, she met and married her husband, Billy Marshall, 68 years ago in Magnolia, Arkansas. As the foundation of our family, she was admired as a loving mother of four children, grandmother of nine, and great-grandmother of five, and as a world-wide traveler, teacher and mentor, exceptional cook, and companionate supporter of those who needed help.

Barbara's greatest joy was when she was with family and friends, cooking for the holiday's, birthday celebrations, or just simply spending time together. One of her last requests was to have a simple celebration of her life with family which we are planning soon. Barbara is survived by her husband Billy and children Billy (Lisa), Mark (Karen), Kaye (Michael), and Chris (Davedda) and many grandchildren, and by her sister Jeanne Franks and by many treasured friends. We all love her dearly and will miss her presence in our lives.
