Barbara was born July 1, 1943 in Hammond, IN to Arthur and Viola Maynard. She grew up in Gary, IN and graduated from Calumet High School where she met a group of lifelong girlfriends. In 1964, she entered into a twenty-five-year marriage with Dale Fieldhouse, which ended in divorce. She gave their children a wonderful childhood, helped raise his sons, and cherished her role as grandmother to her biological children and stepchildren. Barb took in many dogs and cats over the years who were treated like children, too. She will be greatly missed by everyone who was lucky enough to call her Mom, Grandma, or Friend.
