She was preceded in death by her parents, Andrew and Phemia Simonds Earls; husband Roy Barker; brother, Noah Earls who was killed in action in WWII; sisters Juanita Earls Cochran (Roy), and Geneva Earls Ledford (Omar).

She loved and experienced all of the United States as Roy worked in the tunnels. She had a great fondness for Colorado and the American West but Alarka was always home. She also enjoyed spending time with friends, family, and had a zest for life. She will be greatly missed.
She is survived by two daughters, Diane Nations (Jim), Susie Davis (Mark); three grandchildren, Jason Nations (Gabby), Brett Davis, and Derek Davis (Julie); and two great grandchildren, Jameson Nations and Caelyn Davis.
