Born in Spokane, Wash. on Aug. 27. 1934 to Link and Vi Linden, Barbara was married to Richard (Dick) Storey from 1952 until his passing in 1996. They moved to Warden, Wash. where they farmed and started their family. Several years later they moved to Moses Lake. After all five daughters were in school, Barbara decided to work out of the home and became a very smart business woman. She worked as a bookkeeper at several local businesses as well as 20-plus years at Peoples/ U.S. Bank.

Barbara lived a very rewarding life doing things that she enjoyed like camping, traveling and trying her best to keep up with the new technology. She especially loved her iPads (yes – plural). She and Dale were members of the local Good Sam Club, Sandy Sams, for years.

Barbara is survived by her loving partner Dale Hooks, her constant four-legged companion Toby, her sister Nancy Knoll and her five daughters Carole (Dave) Hopkins, Linda Lucas, Sandi (Tim) McDonald, Pam (Roger) Field, and Debbie (Mike) Banks. She also had nine grandchildren: Bob (Katrina) Horst, Ryan Hopkins, Travis (Sam) Lucas, Kelli (Chris) Gehrke, Kacie Daughtery, Chris (Lucinda) Mac, Pilar Field, Elmer Field, Nicholas Banks and Corinna (Tristan) Hall, plus numerous great grandchildren.

Barbara had a huge caring heart and nothing was more important to her than her family.
