Barbara Jeannette Noble, 83, crossed over to be with the Lord on September 27, 2021, after a courageous battle with Lewy Body dementia.
Barbara was born October 19, 1937 in the western Oklahoma town of Arapaho, daughter of Otha Lee and Hubert Kelley.   By their example Barbara began her path to a Godly life and service to the Lord.  She remained committed to serving the Lord until He took her to live in His presence.
Most of Barbara's young life was spent in Clinton, Oklahoma with her sister, Beverly, who paved the way to heaven for her in February 2021. In Clinton she also met and married her high school sweetheart, Buddy, who entered the gates of Heaven in October 1998.  Through their marital union, they were blessed with 3 children: Diana, Greg and Kelley.  Four grandchildren were added to the family through the addition of Blake, son of Diana and J L Boudreaux; Bailey, Mia and Lynlee, daughters of Kelley and Melissa Pitzer.
After several years of widowhood, Barbara married Dr, Jack Noble, a long-term educator and business man, who had lost his wife, Carolyn, sometime earlier. This marriage to Jack additions to their family dynamic with Jay and  Lydia Noble, their children, Jacob and Saran, and eventually Hallie, Jacob 's wife.
During this blessed union of marriage between Jack and Barbara, the two stayed committed to their Godly ways by serving in various capacities at First Baptist Church in Sherman, Texas.
