Barbara Stock Stringham

Barbara Stringham, 88, of Beryl, Utah, passed away peacefully at home on May 28, 2023, surrounded by her loving family. Barbara was born on January 4, 1935, in Cane Beds, Arizona to Ellis Stock and Jenny Bushman. She married the love of her life, Lyle Stringham, on June 19, 1956.

Barbara had a love for all animals, and it was very normal to find a calf in the bathroom, chickens hatching under a light in the laundry room, and lambs being bottle fed in the living room. Barbara also had a love for sewing and quilting. Her quilts were a sight to behold and there was usually a quilt on a frame in her home. She enjoyed puzzles and her grandkids loved doing puzzles with her.

Barbara loved her children and grandchildren fiercely and played a huge part in their lives. She enjoyed cooking and taught them how to preserve all types of foods in jars to be stored for later. Barbara taught many members of her family everything from how to dress a deer properly to how to make peaches taste just right fresh out of a jar, and even how to cut fresh asparagus so it would grow back.

Barbara is preceded in death by her husband, Lyle Stringham, and her brothers, Norman and Neal Stock.

She is survived by her brother, Dwayne Stock, children, Brenda (Rex) Buckner, Debra (Brandt) Adams, Bradley Lyle Stringham, Ronald Ellis Stringham and many Grandchildren, Great-grandchildren and Great-great-grandchildren.
