The family of Barrie Griffinger Straussberg, 86, of West Orange, NJ, regrets to announce that she passed away on Monday, November 12, 2018. Born and raised in West Orange, NJ, Barrie graduated Syracuse University. She married Dr. Arthur Straussberg in June, 1954 and their love story lasted over 60 years, even past his passing in 2015. She was an active member of the community, giving her passion and time to organizations such as CAP (Child Abuse Prevention), Hospice and the NCJW Back to School Store. She was an avid golfer, canasta and mah jong player, symphony lover, devoted Mountain Ridge CC member and loyal friend to legions of people across many generations. She leaves behind her beloved family: her children, Susan (Terry) Baxter, Marc (Sharon) Straussberg; her brother, Michael (Jane) Griffinger; and her delightful and adored grandchildren, Jake, Griffin, Daniel and Max.
We love you, Barrie and we know you are reunited with your dear, darling Artie.
