She was baptized and confirmed at the St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Dunlap and graduated from St. Joseph's School with the class of 1949. She was united in marriage with Bernard Stracke on August 28, 1950 at the St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Dunlap, Iowa. Eight children were born to this union: Bob, Paul, Ed, Larry, Jerry, Jane, Phil and Ann. Bernard and Barbara farmed most of their lives. Throughout the years together they loved dancing to big band music, like when they first met each other at a dance. She also worked at the Little Flower Haven in Earling for thirteen years where she did housekeeping but she enjoyed doing whatever anyone needed done. From painting the ladies' nails to just being a listening ear if they needed someone to visit with. She had a way to make everyone she met feel special. "All are welcome" was one way she was so kind to everyone from her friends, neighbors and especially her grandchildren. She always saw the good in people and was positive about the people in her life. She lived life to the fullest and didn't like making things about her. When family was in need, she would drop everything to support her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren in any way possible.
