She attended school in Winterset and graduated in the class of 1941. Bib was united in marriage to Hal Orr in the spring of 1942 at Grant City, Missouri. She was a homemaker and farmwife, raising her children and helping Hal run their farm. Later, Bib worked as a housekeeper at Villa West (later Bethesda Care Center) in Winterset and retired after more than 30 years. Bib was an avid reader and enjoyed her crafts and especially loved to paint. She also enjoyed tending to her flowers and caring for all of her beloved animals. All of this said, she loved nothing more than any time spent with her family. Bib is survived by her children, Garry (Mary Ann) Orr and Patti Henry both of Winterset; five grandchildren, Tawyne (Jay) Gibson, Tasha (James) Schwingendorf, Teyona (Scott) Steenhoek, and Chism (Kelley) Orr, and Hiedi (Jason) Scoles.

She was preceded in death by her parents and husband; sisters Jean Lehman, Doris “Doad” Olsen, Eldora “Toots” Parker, Margaret “Mug” Flescher, and son-in-law, Earl Henry.
