Barbara Ann Horne will be sincerely missed by her loving family, her devoted friends and all the wonderful individuals who knew and loved her.She was a major store Account Manager for 32 years for Jerell Inc., a division of Sharon Young, former sales manager for Avon cosmetics and flight attendant for American Airlines in the late 1960’s.She is survived by daughters Kimberly E. Kanalas, San Antonio, TX, Jenny R. Horne, New York, NY, Fur Baby Chloe, Dallas, TX, and sister Susan Morgan Elkins, AR.She was preceded in death by her parents Alfreda & Floyd Getsinger.Barbara’s flare for style was unrivaled as much as her ability to shop and find the best deals. She shared her passion for fashion & interior design by always offering her expert advice on which outfit flattered your shape best or which decorative furnishing made your home complete. It was rare to shop with Barbara and head home with your money left in your pockets. Her flare for style was cultivated by her passion for art- Monet & Caravaggio among her favorites. She loved art museums like the Met and fashion & design magazines like Bazaar, Elle, Veranda and Architecture Digest. When she wasn’t decorating her home or her loved ones, she tended her garden of roses, hydrangeas and azaleas. Barbara loved to be silly and to laugh even in the most difficult of times. If you needed an ear she was the best listener. We can only imagine she’s already had a glass of reisling, catching up on the latest Angel gossip all the while contemplating how she’ll redecorate Heaven.Funeral service for Ms. Barbara Ann Horne will be held Sunday, July 28, 2019 at 12:30 PM in The Wildwood Chapel at Restland Funeral Home.Funeral arrangements for Ms. Barbara Ann Horne have been faithfully entrusted to Restland Funeral Home and Cemetery, which is located at 13005 Greenville Ave., at the intersection of Restland Road, Dallas, Texas 75243, and can be reached at (972) 238-7111.
