Barbara J. Weiner

Barbara was everything to her “fella” Stephen Weiner, having been married to him for almost 55 amazing years. A proud, adoring and incredible mother to her children Wendy, Robert and his wife Mara, Daniel and his wife Margo Moss; and the most cool, awesome Nana to Ben, Ari and Julien, who will all remember her with great love, respect and admiration. She is survived by two younger brothers, Billy Levy and his wife Margie and Richard Levy, her brother in law, Norman Weiner, nephew, Andrew Levy and his wife Liz Wilson and niece, Jill Levy.

Born February 4, 1941 in Jersey City, New Jersey, Barbara moved to New England in 1958 to attend Brandeis, where she met Steve. They married in June of 1961 and moved to Framingham in April of 1963.

Barbara was an Interior Designer and it was her passion to help so many turn their house into a comfortable home filled with color, beauty and love. It was her way of touching people and enhancing their lives.

In addition to her love of all things family, Barbara enjoyed friendships with so many dear people. She loved to entertain, cook, bake, knit, read, dance, watch sports and became a licensed pilot. Barbara was a true legend at Camp Echo Lark in Poyntelle, PA, where campers and her peers held her in the highest esteem.

Beautiful, gutsy and brave, Barbara put up the toughest fight of her life battling lung cancer, never losing her dignity and grace.
