Barbara had a kind and nurturing spirit, which touched the lives of all who knew her. On June 27, 1963, she married the love of her life, Eddie Cloyd. Together, they made their home in Sayre, Oklahoma, on Puckett’s Farm, where they raised their five sons. On April 8, 1979, Barbara gave her life to Christ, and her strong relationship with Jesus remained a guiding light throughout her life. Barbara retired in 2003 after working for Sayre Public Schools for 21 years, where she was the manager of the cafeteria. Together she and Eddie moved to Elk City in 2004 where she spent her time reading books and her newspapers, which she was always upset when her Cheyenne star did not arrive on time. Barbara’s greatest joy in life was her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She cherished every moment with them and was always ready with a listening ear, a warm hug, and a gentle lesson in patience and love. Her wisdom and warmth will live on through the many lives she touched.
