BARBARA ANNE (Thomas) DILL,77, of Lonoke closed her eyes to this life and opened her eyes in her Heavenly home on September 2, 2015. Born March 25, 1938, in Detroit, MI, to the late West and Edna Maye (Jernigan) Thomas, she was preceded in death by her husband and partner Charles Dill Sr, son of the late E.L. and Clara (Henderson) Dill of Lonoke, AR. Barbara relocated to Little Rock, AR in her teens and met Charles Dill, the love of her life in December, 1954. With a strong foundation built on faith and love, together they shared a love for each other admired by all who knew them.
Barbara is survived by a brother, Bill Thomas, Stuttgart, AR, three children, Karen Kropf (Ed), Beebe, AR; Chuck Dill, Jonesboro, AR; Mike Dill (Karen), Lonoke, AR; seven grandchildren, Beth (Greg) Still, Rachel Chapman, Becca Chapman, Derek Dill, Blake Dill, Trey Dill, Callie Dill and great-grandchildren, Skylar and Cullen Still.
Barbara was a woman of faith with a generous spirit, always willing to give unconditionally of herself. She always made others feel welcome, showing incredible love and compassion, and gave her whole heart with everything she did. She used her talents, such as sewing and cooking, to contribute to her community whether that be donating homemade rabbits to local shelters and foundations or baking a batch of cookies for the first day of school. She will be greatly missed by the many family members and friends who were blessed to know and love her.
