Barbara Ann Bush

Barbara Bush passed away on July 24, 2024 in Edmonton, Alberta at the age of 85 years.

Barbara was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba and raised on the family farm near Middlebro, Manitoba. Barbara was teaching at a one-room school in Layland, Manitoba when she met the love of her life, Robert Bush. The two were wed in 1961. Their son Michael arrived in 1967. Barb enjoyed 55 wonderful years in Devon. During that time, she touched many lives as a teacher (Robina Baker Elementary), Sunday school teacher (Devon Alliance Church), neighbour and friend.

Barbara will be greatly missed by her son, Michael (Sandra) and grandson Jacob. She is survived by her brother, Charles (Janet), and her sister, Valarie.

Barbara was predeceased by her husband, Robert; grandson, Jordan Bush; parents; Charlie and Theresa Varga; brother, Wayne Varga, and many Nieces and Nephews.

A private family service will take place at a later date to celebrate Barbara's amazing story and life.

The family would like to thank the outstanding staff of the C K Hui Heart Centre at the Royal Alexandra Hospital for the care and compassion provided to Barbara during her last week.

In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy in support of the Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation are graciously appreciated.
