    Executive secretary
    Memorial services for Ruth "Maggie" Mowbray Haggett Barbor will be held Thursday at 4 p.m. at St. Paul's Episcopal Church with the Rev. Greg Proctor officiating.
    Mrs. Barbor of Meridian, died Sunday, May 29, 2004, in her home. She was born in Cambridge, Md., attended Baltimore High School and became an executive secretary for the War Department during World War II. She was also a hand and leg model during the war years.

    She was very active in Meridian Little Theatre. She often played opposite her husband, Bob, in both comedic and dramatic roles. Her signature roles included "Yenta" in Fiddler on the Roof and "Big Momma" in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, a role she learned in one night before the opening due to an illness of the original cast member. She was honored recently by the recognition of MLT's Theatre Achievement Award.

    Memorials may be made to Meridian Little Theatre.
    Arrangements were incomplete at Barham Funeral Home for Ronald A. Crimm, 47, of Meridian, who died Tuesday, June 15, 2004, in his home.
