Barbara LeGrand
Deerfield- On Wednesday, July 23, 2014 we lost our beloved Wife, Mother and Grandma. A gentle soul that was loved by many and adored by all. Barbara LeGrand went peacefully with her husband of 51 years by her side to "Walk the Last Mile Together." Barbara was born on May 23, 1944 in Macon, GA to the late EA and Bernice Cranford. She was the youngest of 3 children. Barbara met her future husband, Keith, on September 19, 1962 and they married the next January 6, 1963. Together they raised 7 children with 18 grandchildren. Barbara, Bobbi to her co-workers, was employed at Wisconsin Department of Revenue for over 20 years and retired in December 2012. She was an avid gardener and loved her birds, especially Cardinals. Barbara will be remembered for her outgoing and kind personality, with a smile that would light up any room. She was a great teacher of life's story and left her legacy of humility and compassion for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to follow. She is lovingly survived by her husband, Keith; children, Keith (Sue) LeGrand of Brandon, Cathy (Tim) Wilkinson of Mazomanie, Kelly LeGrand (Kirk Jones) of Madison, Clint (Amy) LeGrand of Evansville...[more]View Full Online Obituary and Tributes
