Barbara Ellen McKay, affectionately known as Barbie, was born on July 23, 1964, in Bowman, North Dakota. She passed away on September 13, 2024, in Whitefish, Montana, leaving behind a legacy of love and laughter.
Barbie dedicated her life to her family and her work at the local food depot, where her nurturing spirit shone through in every interaction. Her proudest accomplishments were her children: Brittney, Brad, Kevin, Chancy, and Brody, who brought her immense joy and fulfillment. Barbie was also a loving partner to her spouse, Roland Thilmony, who shared in her journey of love and family.
She is survived by her siblings Kris, Jeri, Brian, and Alicyn, who will carry her memory forward. Known for her funny and witty personality, Barbie had an incredible ability to make those around her feel cherished and valued. She was not just a mother to her own children but a mother to everyone she encountered, always ready with a kind word or a supportive shoulder.
Barbie's warmth and humor touched the lives of many, and her spirit will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
We'll plant real trees for you in Barbara's memory and display your contribution forever.
