Horses were a fundamental part of her life. She was the District Commissioner for San Juan Capistrano Pony Club. After moving to the bay area she was the DC for Portola Valley Pony Club as well. She was fully committed to the United States Pony Club values. She joined Los Altos Hounds in 1990 and proudly received her colors in 1993. Barbara filled many leadership positions in that organization. Barbara’s favorite two horses were her Welsh Cob, “Margo” and Rocky Mountain horse, “Maggie Mae”. She touched many souls as an entrepreneur with her many small businesses.
Barbara (Bobbi) was the proud grandmother of five: From Patricia: Sydney Paine (24), Cori Paine (22), Hudson Paine (20) From Ryan: Riley Brown (11) 6th grade and Mackenzie Brown (8) 3rd grade.
