Barbara Jean Bean

Barbara Jean Bean was born on November 18, 1935, and passed into eternity on June 2, 2024, at River Rock Assisted Living In Buhl, Idaho.

Mom was born to William Warren Weaver and Leona Mae Craig in Twin Falls, Idaho, and made her first home In Eden, Idaho. Her siblings were Willeen (Carl) Bragg, Norma (Joe) Brown, and Bill (Sandy) Weaver.

Mom was educated in Hazelton, Idaho. She married Clark W. Bean in 1952, in Elko, Nevada. Clark & Barbara had 3 children, Steve (Peggy), Donna (Curtis), and Ron (Deb). Mom’s focus in life was keeping all of us well-fed and keeping up on the duties of the farm life. Later, her focus was on her grandchildren (10), great-grandchildren (25), and great-great-grandchild (1).

Some of Mom’s favorite things to do were keeping a perfect lawn, crocheting, and crossword puzzles. After her eyesight was affected, she had to hire lawn care but was always able to see if the mower had missed a blade of grass.

Barbara was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Clark; & sister, Willeen.

Barbara’s family would like to thank River Rock and Visions Hospice for the amazing care that was given to her during this time.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Visions Hospice, 455 Park View Loop, Twin Falls, Idaho, 83301.

A celebration picnic will be held from 2:00 pm until 4:00 pm, Sunday, June 16, 2024, at Barbara’s home, 4179 N 2300 E, Filer. A private inurnment will be held at Sunset Memorial Park at a later date.
