Barbara Ruth Williams was born in Purcell, the younger of two children born to Leon and Ruth Williams. She attended Purcell Schools, graduating with the Dragon Class of 1958.
Barbara attended nursing school and this life changing decision, altered her course in life. She devoted herself in the service of others, and she greatly enjoyed her work as a nurse. Her first years were spent with Dr. Bethel in Norman. She then worked for Purcell Municipal Hospital and a couple of area nursing homes, before retiring.
