Barbara Jean Llewellyn's Obituary
Barbara Jean (Francis) Llewellyn ascended to Heaven on March 24, 2023. She was born on August 2 to Shey and Violet Christine (Wright) Francis in Tulsa, OK. She graduated from Roger High School and lacked one semester of graduating from NSU in Special Education. She wanted to go back after retirement and finish her degree.
Barbara married Gary Llewellyn on November 26, 1968, in Tahlequah, OK. She worked for Snow's Furniture until 1984, then began working for Avis Budget Group from which she retired in 2016.
She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Gary, parents Shey and Christine (Sparky) Francis, her sister Sue Hopkins, father/mother in law Dan and Pauline Llewellyn, and sister/brother in law Linda and Jerry Fowlkes.
She is survived by her children, Dan Llewellyn and Angela Llewellyn, her grandson Jordan Llewellyn, nieces and nephews Debbie and Rob Aloisio, Kristi and Mick Peterman and Michael and Katie Hughes; her great nieces and nephews Jacob and Adam Keathley, Zachery Cox, and Kaleb and Kate Hughes.
Barbara had a zest for life. She loved to travel; going on cruises, girl trips, family vacations; all which allowed her to spend time and have fun with loved ones. She was up to any challenge.
Barbara did not know a stranger as she could talk to anyone and made friends wherever she went. People were drawn to her warmth and kindness. Her smile lit up the world.
One day we will be able to see your beautiful soul again. Until then.
Graveside service will be 11:00 AM, Thursday, March 30, 2023, at Floral Haven Memorial Gardens in the Garden of the Last Supper.
