December 19, 1924 - July 29, 2024
Barbara Morefield passed away at 3:16pm on July 29, 2024 at the age of 99. She was in her home of 60 years and surrounded by her family when she left our lives and joined her husband Bill, and her sons Nick and Tim, in heaven. She was born on December 19, 1924 to her parents Frederick and Florence Tracey in the Brixton area of London. Living in London during the German bombing raids in WWII, Barbara enlisted in the Royal Air Force at 17 years old where she worked in the Operations building tracking friendly and enemy aircraft. During her service, she met Bill who was with the U.S. Army and they were married in England where they had their first son Nick. Younger son Tim and daughter Tracey joined the family while Bill finished up his military career in various locations including Virginia, Germany, and Alaska. The family moved to Stockton, CA in 1964 where Barbara became an active member of the church, local theater scene, and various clubs and charities. A social butterfly, Barbara was always the life of the party and quick to share her passion for word games, knitting, and lively conversation. Her impeccable style and lingering British accent would get your attention, but her sharp sense of humor and caring heart would seal the deal. She made an impression on everyone who was lucky enough to meet her and she will be missed by them every day. Barbara is survived by her younger sister Gerry, daughter Tracey, 5 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great-grandchildren.
