Barbara Worley Baytes, born on July 1, 1931, was surrounded by loved ones as she entered the presence of the Lord on Tuesday, May 13, 2025 . She was 93. Born and raised in Spartanburg, South Carolina, she moved to Camden, SC, with her husband and their children in the 1960’s. A devoted follower of Christ, she was the oldest member of New Hope Church in Camden. Barbara enjoyed spending time with the Lord and with her family, rocking on the front porch, listening to music, and playing card games with family and friends. In her younger days, she enjoyed working in the daycare at Malvern Hill Baptist Church.
