She was preceded in death by her parents Walter and Opal Milleson, her sister Sue Touchett, her beloved husband of 56 years Bradley Roll, and her daughter Linda Ritchie.


Barbara was a loving mother to her three children, Linda Ritchie (Bruce), Judy Roll (Richard Lipscomb) and Steve Roll (Katherine). She dearly loved her grandchildren Michael Ritchie (Lisa), Doug Ritchie (Marie), Todd Wise and Anthony Wise (Danica) as well as her seven great-grandchildren and nine great-great-grandchildren. Barbara made birthdays and holiday celebrations so very special for her family. Our fondest memories revolve around being together, especially at Christmas time. We shared, laughed, looked at family pictures, reminisced, and created new special moments that became precious memories we treasure forever. Our family is a circle of love and strength, and the family traditions she created have carried on through our generations of love.

Barbara was blessed with so many lifelong friendships. She valued each and every one, and loyally stayed connected across the years and miles. The phone was her favorite lifeline.

She loved movies, music and reading. Her favorite movies included Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz. She often described the moment of seeing color in a motion picture for the first time when Dorothy opened the door. Her favorite songs included “Always,” which was her and Bradley’s special song, and “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” by Judy Garland with whom she shared the same birthday of June 10th.

Barbara worked for years in retail and as a receptionist at Clermont Medical Center in Clermont, Florida. She was an active member at Woodlands Lutheran Church in Montverde, Florida, where she was a charter member.

A graveside service led by Rev. Gary Sheets will be held Monday, December 23rd, at 11 am at Mount Zion Primitive Baptist Cemetery in Astoria, Illinois. A Celebration of Life will be planned in the new year.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial contribution to the Alzheimer’s Foundation, a hospice care provider or the Woodlands Lutheran Church in Montverde, Florida.

Everyone who knew Barbara is aware she loved cardinals and believed they appear when loved ones are near. We hope the next time you see a cardinal you think of her.

Mom, you are our sunshine forever and always, and we will miss you dearly.
