Barbara A. Green
Barbara Ann Green, 88, of Sedalia, passed on Friday, April 17, 2020 at Bothwell Regional Health Center.
She was born February 10, 1932, in Sedalia, the daughter of the late Walton Thomas and Pearl (Hyatt) Berry. On August 9, 1952, she was united in marriage to Matt O. Green III, who survives.
Barbara grew up in rural Pettis County. She attended school in Smithton and was a 1950 graduate of Smithton High School. She attended Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg and graduated with her Bachelor of Science in Education. She taught for the Sedalia Public School System and Smithton School District.
Barbara was an active member of First United Methodist Church and most recently served on the Expansion Board overseeing the construction of the new church. She was also a member of Sorosis.
She enjoyed reading, gardening and loved animals. She and the love of her life, Matt, were strong supporters of Smithton School District and rarely missed a ballgame. She was a dear friend to many, had a true love for people of all ages and had a way to make everyone feel special.
In addition to her husband, Matt O. Green, III, she is survived by two children, Teri Ann (Green) Moore, and her husband, Kenny, of Woodstock, GA; and Matt O. Green IV, and his wife, Jennifer, of Leawood, KS; five grandchildren, Katherine Monroe, and her husband, Brandon, Allison Harrell, and her husband, Josh, Trey Moore, Matt O. Green V, and his wife, Elizabeth, and Elizabeth Green, and her fiancé, Eric Braun; and two great-grandsons, Luke and Brooks.
