Barbara was a devoted homemaker and co-owner of B & B Graphics in Cleveland Heights. She enjoyed shopping, playing cards, cheering on Cleveland sports teams, and, most especially, traveling with her late husband, Michael Gold.
She is survived by her loving son, Benjamin Toncic Gold (Christina); her siblings, Arthur Klein (Tricia) and Janet Mercer (Joel); and a host of cherished cousins, nieces, and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents.
A graveside service will be held Tuesday, May 12, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at Glenville Jewish Cemetery, 13016 Shaw Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio.
Following the service, friends are invited to share a meal of consolation at the home of her brother and sister-in-law from 1:00–3:00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Barbara’s memory to a charity supporting Jewish community services, MS research, animal rescue, or another cause close to her heart.
