Barbara Ann McClure Wall, passed away peacefully at Pinnacle Rehabilitation Center in Price, Utah, on Tuesday, October 24, 2023.

Barbara was born in Ellensburg, Washington on September 28, 1943 to James and Ruth Weaver McClure. She was the third of six children. As a youth she enjoyed playing softball, outdoor games and card games.

Barbara attended Ellensburg High School where she excelled in her studies.  Shortly after graduation she moved to California where she met and married her husband, Nathan Wall. They were married on May 18, 1969. With this unity, Barbara brought into this marriage her son, Randall. Nathan also had three children, Rick, Mark and Margo. Together they had a son, Eric Wall.

Barbara was employed for many years as a semi-conductor tester for Fairchild Semiconductor in San Jose, California. She worked hard and was dedicated to her employment.  She was one of the best mechanics they employed.  Vacation time revolved around her work schedule.  Barbara and Nathan enjoyed taking their vacations to:  Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Mexico, Arizona, Hawaii, and Alaska. A lot of their vacations were spent fishing in various locations with family members.

Barbara’s favorite things in life included her children, her 1977 black corvette, playing slot machines, country music, anything Elvis or Mickey Mouse, watching sports, yard sales, sleeping in late, reading books, playing cards, a good rare steak and a piece of dark chocolate.

For many years, Barbara always had beautiful long brown hair. One of her favorite accessories was her leather cap. Her cap was more important than a pair of sunglasses.  As time went on, her hair changed to a beautiful gray color.  But, her long hair and cap still remained as one of her best attributes.

In their retirement years, Nathan and Barbara relocated to Spring Glen, Utah.  Where they resided for a few short years.

Barbara is survived by her loving husband, Nathan; son, Eric Wall; step-children, Rick Wall and Margo Davis; nine grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; siblings, Jim McClure, Laurie Harris (Don), and Colleen (Doug) Calkins.

Preceded in death by her parents; son, Randall Perez; step-son, Mark Wall; sisters, Virginia Nicks and Karen McClure Johnson; as well as other extended family members.
