Barbara A. Gudermuth, 90, of Troy, Missouri, and formerly of Silex, Missouri, passed peacefully on Sunday, June 23, 2024 at Sugar Creek Assisted Living. She was born on Jan. 23, 1934 in St. Louis to Wallace and Lilian (Franklin) Tucker.  Barbara was the second youngest of her 12 siblings, so she knew what sharing and thinking of others meant.

After graduating from high school in St. Louis, she went to work as a beautician  and continued in that line of work for almost 50 years.  It was during this time that she met her soulmate, Herbert Gudermuth, who was serving in the U.S. Navy.  They were married for over 58 years and enjoyed spending time with their family and friends.

Surviving are her loving family members: her sons and their spouses: William and wife Linda Gudermuth of Hawk Point, Jay and his wife Joyce Gudermuth of Herber Springs, AR; four grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren; other relatives and friends.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband and her 12 siblings.

A private service to be held at a later date.

Family and friends are invited to sign our online guestbook at: www.mccoyblossomfh.col
