Barbara was born on August 9, 1933 in Montclair, New Jersey, to Robert and Jean Sang. Barbara married her adoring husband, Henry S. Buchanan, of Newark, New Jersey in 1961. Residing in Parsippany and then Butler, Barbara and Henry had their three children, Henry, Robert, and Beth. While Barbara held multiple jobs over her career, she held the most pride in raising her children and spoiling her grandchildren.
While her children gave her a run for her money in their teenage years, Barbara always reflected fondly of the exciting, albeit crazy, times they shared as a family. She is survived by her sister, Helen Milmoe; her children, Henry Buchanan, Robert Buchanan, and Beth Chrobock; her five loving grandchildren, Meghan, Brendan, Haley, Connor, and Brooke; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Family, friends, and others whose lives Barbara touched are invited to the Goble Funeral Home 22 Main St., Sparta, NJ from 1pm - 3pm on Friday, June 24, to reminisce and celebrate Barbara’s life well lived.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the American Heart Association.
