Barbara Magers Obituary

Barbara Ann Magers

Barbara A. Magers, 83, of Tiffin, passed away Sunday evening, December 7, 2025, at her home.

She was born on August 4, 1942, to Riley and Dorothy (Detterman) Cook and was raised by her paternal grandparents, George and Goldie Cook. On July 25, 1969, she married David Magers, and he survives.

She was preceded in death by a grandchild.

Barb was a loving mother and grandmother. She loved gardening, decorating, shopping, and home renovations. She also loved her many pets she had through the years. She was stubborn and determined, but also very giving and wore her heart on her sleeve.

Barb and Dave did so much for me when I bought the family home. I am forever grateful. Taking off wallpaper, painting and everything involved. It was a lot of work and she was right there. She will be missed.
