Harp, 76, was born on March 20, 1936 in Shreveport, Louisiana to the union of Kenneth "Cotton" Phillips and Laverne Mayo Phillips and passed away peacefully at her residence in Monterey, Louisiana on January 16, 2013, after a 3 year battle with pancreatic cancer. Mrs. Barbara was a legal secretary, notary, and paralegal in Concordia and Catahoula Parishes for over 40 years, and never met a stranger. She league bowled for many years and loved all sports, particularly tennis. Her friends and family knew better than to call her during Wheel of Fortune or while she was keeping score during a baseball game. Her enthusiasm and love of life will be missed by all that knew and loved her. She is preceded in death by her husband John M. Harp, and parents, Kenneth Maurice and Julia Laverne Mayo Phillips. She is survived by three daughters, Jon Ann Giblin and husband Lloyd of Baton Rouge, LA, Jill Harp of Monterey, LA, Jeni Jones and husband Johnny of Monterey, LA, and one son Jeff Harp of St. Francisville, LA, fourteen grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren, one sister Sherry Gillespie of Jasper, AR, and two nephews. The family would like to give a special thanks to Jim and Joanie Lossin, for all of their love, care, and support for Barbara for many years. The family would also like to thank Camilla Hospice for their care and compassion during Barbara's last days. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Lismore Baptist Church for its building fund. The family will receive friends after 6pm until 8pm, Thursday, January 17, 2013 at Lismore Baptist Church at 5148 Hwy 565, Jonesville, LA. Online condolences at www.comerfh.com
