Barbara was born June 25, 1950 in Norwood, Massachusetts, the daughter of Alex and Nicolina (Malacaria) Carchedi. Barbara was a school teacher for 26 years with the Shrewsbury Montessori School in Massachusetts. She loved to travel, especially through Europe, and enjoyed Zentangle drawing. Most importantly, she loved being with her family and embracing her Italian heritage. Barbara’s dream was to retire in California to be with her daughter to enjoy the sunflowers and vineyards.
Barbara will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Adrianna M. Hutchinson of Vacaville, CA; her mother Nicolina of Lowellville; her two brothers, Vito (Donna) Carchedi of Struthers and Ted (Mary Jo) Carchedi of Poland; and many loving nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her dad Alex and a sister, Mary Pushkar.

A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, May 21st at 11:00am in Highland Cemetery, 320 Winter Street, Norwood. A procession to the cemetery will form at 10:30am at Gillooly Funeral Home, 126 Walpole Street (Rte. 1A), Norwood.
