Daughter of William Henry Barry and Beatrice Lawrence Barry. Barbara is pre-deceased by her brother Eric and her niece Erica Jodoin. She is survived by her loving sister Elizabeth of Toronto, sister-in-law Christine, nieces and nephews Christopher, Lisa, Catherine and David, great- nieces Faith, Sara, Maia, Emma, Olivia and Julia and great-nephew, Kevin.
Barbara attended St. Paul’s Academy, Westmount and McGill University. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 1954 and returned to McGill to receive a Master of Science degree in Marine Biology in 1974.
She taught Biology at McGill and Sir George Williams University (now Concordia). The greater part of her teaching career was spent at John Abbott College where she taught anatomy, physiology, and bio-chemistry to pre-med and nursing students.
Barbara had many interests. She was a voracious reader, loved music, and was a talented artist.
Because of current circumstances, there will be no funeral service. Ever the scientist, Barbara has donated her body to McGill University Medical School.
Friends may wish to donate to charities of their choice and Barbara has suggested that they also raise a glass of champagne in her memory.
