She was born June 3, 1936, on Staten Island, N.Y., only daughter of James Perkins and Marguerite (Leiper) Perkins Rowe. Barbara graduated from George Stevens Academy in 1955, where she met her loving husband, Dana C. Jones. They were married October 1955 and raised their six children lovingly and unconditionally.
She is survived by her children, Timothy D. and wife, Debbie; Kathy A. and husband, Ken; Fawn P. and husband, John; Colin K. and wife, Anna; Carl E. and Gavin, Holly A.; her grandchildren Adele, Buzz, Shandi, Brittany, Nicholas, Laura, Katherine, Benjamin, Erica and Abigail, who were her pride and joy; nine great-grandchildren, whom she cherished; her many cousins, nieces and nephews, sisters-in-law and brother-in-law. She was predeceased by her parents, her husband and her brother, Henry T. Perkins.
Many thanks to her close friends: Betty, who helped get her to many appointments, and of course, lunch dates with the “Q-Tips.”
Graveside services will be held at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction and care of Mitchell-Tweedie Funeral Home and Cremation Services Bucksport. (mitchelltweedie-young.com)
