Barbara loved people and parties. Throughout the years she participated in the Century Club at Shippensburg University, Gourmet Club, the Red Hat Society, and even created a Ski Club to encourage her children to learn something new.

Babs, as she later named herself, enjoyed hosting many people in her home and at her pool.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Frederick L. Peters, and one brother, Charlie Baughman.
