Barbara Pearson 1952-2024

BarbaraAnn Pearson passed away peacefully on March 5, 2024, at the age of 71.

Born on May 8, 1952, to Golden Masteller and Celia Moyer of Park Rapids, Minnesota, Barbara was the youngest of three children. In 1954, her family moved to Shelton, Washington where Barbara would find her forever home.

Barbara was a loving mother and grandmother who cherished her family and friends. She enjoyed playing cards, camping in her motor-home, and showing her love for others through her cooking. Barbara was a recognized member of the Shelton bowling league for years and continued to bowl whenever she could.

Sharing these activities with her best friend Margaret Barnes and her family were special times for Barbara.

A sports enthusiast, Barbara found great joy in cheering for her favorite home teams, whether her grandchildren's volleyball, bowling and golf games or the Seahawks, Kraken, and Mariner's.

Barbara, 'Grandma', 'Mom', will be remembered for her treasured recipes, for her enthusiasm for shopping on Black Friday. And for always being there, to listen, support and to love. We miss her.

She is survived by her brother Kelly Masteller, her daughters, Tammy Frahman (Tom Oien) and Jody Oblizalo (John) and her stepson Scott Pearson (Kelli) and her grandchildren: Isabella and Owen Oblizalo, and Tommy Oien.

Barbara was preceded in death by her second husband, Howard Pearson, her first husband, John Frahman and her brother Robert Masteller.

In lieu of a funeral, Barbara's request was that her family and friends celebrate and think of her when doing the things she loved.
