Barbara Tribe

In loving memory of Barbara Tribe, who was born on December 2, 1948, in Ogden, Utah, and spent her 77 years on earth as a beacon of strength, talent, and unwavering support for those around her. Her life was a testament to her faith in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, as she served in several Relief Society Presidencies and was the the Relief Society pianist for many years. Barbara, a devoted wife who cherished her family, married her life partner, David Tribe, on August 18, 1972, and later sealed in the Ogden Utah Temple. Together they built a life filled with love and happiness.

Barbara's talents and passions were as diverse as they were profound. She was an accomplished pianist, offering the gift of music to her community and church. Her professional life was marked by a successful career as an office manager in a medical practice, where she enjoyed working closely with the doctors and staff. Barbara was also a proud member of the La Dianaeda Sorority at Weber State University, an affiliation that remained dear to her throughout her life. She had a special place in her heart for all dogs, with a particular fondness for Snoopy, and she was an enthusiastic genealogist, a pursuit which allowed her to connect with her roots and history. She loved her group of neighborhood friends including Linda Parke, Marilee & Kent Poorman, Lydia Cowlishaw, Marti Frasier, Alden & Charlene Talbot and many others.

Barbara's life was a tapestry woven with threads of joy, laughter, love, and faith. She was a supportive sister to Janet Corey and Beth Black, and a loving daughter to her parents, Carl and Shirley Grimstad, who preceded her in death. Barbara is survived by her loving husband David, her sisters Beth Black (Dean deceased) and Janet Corey, nephews and nieces Sean Corey, Alan Corey, Jordan Corey, Tami Black Echard (Steve), Shannon Black Mickelsen (Brett), Kim Black Gibbs (Nathan), Steven Black (Lana), and Becca Black Bonadio (Dominic). She is also survived by sister-in-law Charlene Hemsley and Charlene's son Greg Churchill and many beloved great nieces, great nephews, extended family members and dear friends.
