She was born June 7, 1937 in Morgan, Vt., the daughter of Harry and Helen (McCabe) Clark. She attended St. Johnsbury Academy and graduated in the class of 1955. She was proud to have lived her entire life in the house that she bought when she was 18. She spent most of her adult working life at the St. Johnsbury Trucking Company until their closing in 1993. Her family was the most important part of her life. She loved going to her grandsons' ball games, and rarely missed them. She enjoyed photography, and displaying her pictures on the refrigerator. Halloween was one of Barb's favorite times of the year because she loved to dress up and hand out candy to the neighborhood children. She also enjoyed getting in her car and going for random drives down the back roads of Vermont. She is survived by her daughter Sandy Wright, her husband Peter and their son, PJ of Waterford; her son Ray Taylor Jr., his wife Michele and their son, Zach of St. Johnsbury; a brother Richard Clark of Kingsley, Penn.; two sisters, Marjorie Clark of St Johnsbury, and Margaret Delosa and her husband Richard of Colchester; many nieces and nephews; by life-long friend Joanie Beattie; and by all her friends at Cardiac Rehab at NVRH in St Johnsbury.
