Barbara was a devoted and hard worker as a HR Specialist for NEBF (National Electrical Benefit Fund). She temporarily retired and ended up working part-time at Sears and decided to fully retired after a year or so.

After moving to Rockville, she attended the Church of Christ at Manor Woods where she served as a welcome host, worked with the kids' ministries and on the prayer team. In her spare time she enjoyed taking photos, walk and cooking on Saturdays. We all looked forward to her sweet potato pies during the holidays. She loved dogs and always eager to converse at Sunday service. Barbara had a sweet, gentle and caring spirit.
