WATERVILLE — Barbara Ann Parlin, 96, passed away Monday, March 5, 2018, at Oak Grove Care Center, with her family and staff by her side.
She was born Feb. 19, 1922, the daughter of Robert F. and Lucie A. (Fellows) Parlin.

She attended school through the eight grade, and remained home with her mother most of her life, becoming her right hand.
Barbara was a very proud attendee at Norway Baptist Church and she was very excited about her new pink Bible. She enjoyed reading her Bible and also reading about European royalty.
She did beautiful embroidery and made lovely pillowcases to give away. As Barbara aged, she loved her wildly colored fingernails, playing bingo on her special card with enlarged numbers, new beads and clothes.
Barbara is survived by siblings Rachel (Parlin) Winchell of California and Ruth (Parlin) Meyers of Oregon; many nieces and nephews, spanning three generations; a Canadian family, Sylvia (Parlin) Boutillier, Eva (Parlin) Babin and Robert Parlin. She was predeceased by siblings, Esther (Parlin) Enman, Doris (Parlin) Pease, Robert Parlin, Ralph Parlin and her parents.
At Barbara’s request, there will be no visitation hours or funeral service.
Burial will take place in the spring at the convenience of the family.
