Barbara Irene Glasco passed away at 9:43 a.m. Tuesday, March 22, 2022, at her home surrounded by family. She was born June 28, 1935, at home in Ashland, IL, the daughter of Clyde and Lula Mae Clemons. She married Keith DuWayne Sr. on March 16, 1957, in Ashland.

She was preceded in death by both of her parents and her brother, Willie Clemons. Barbara was an active member of the United Missionary Baptist Church for many years. She was a much loved wife, "mom" and grandma to her entire family. Every person she met has a story to tell about how she touched their life.
