On August 30, 1969 she married James Neil Miles and moved to Hiland, Wyoming and became a rancher’s wife for the next 20 years. Barb took on the job she loved the most, mother of her three children; she was very active in whatever her children were doing. In 1998 she returned to Alliance to work for Dayco and Parker Hannifin until her health forced her to retire in 2007. Barb loved to spend time with family, friends and her animals. She loved all children as if they were her own. She loved to gamble taking a yearly trip to Deadwood and to drink a good cup of coffee.
