She is lovingly remembered by her son, James and his wife Jan and her daughters, Judi Kergin and JoAnne Moore and her husband Ian. Special Nana to Mike and Erin Krueger, Jeff and Miranda Krueger, Kathy and Mark Smith, Kelly and Marc Demarest, Jennifer and Ansgar Luetke-Schelhowe, Ryan and Cindy Moore and Kristen and Jerry Charbonneau. She will be remembered and missed dearly by her 15 great grandchildren Aidan, Emily, Sean, Holly, Alexis, Myles, Casey, Catherine, Benjamin, Max, Owen, Preston, Michael, Emma, and Madi. Barbara is also survived by her brother David and his wife Linda. Many nieces and nephews will also miss Aunt Barb in their lives.

Barbara gave new meaning to the expression "if you want something done, ask a busy person!" And busy she was! She was an active member of several organizations including St. Joseph's CWL, Participation House, the Carmel Guild, and St. Mary's Hospital Giftcase volunteer. She bowled, she curled, she sewed, she knitted, and was a much sought after babysitter for her grandkids.

We want to thank the staff at Conestoga Lodge Retirement Home and those at Lanark Heights Long Term Care for the excellent loving care they provided for Mom in the final stage of her life.
