Barbara Ann Goble

Goble, Barbara Ann (Mergel). Barbara was born August 10, 1945, in Butler, PA and passed away February 10, 2023 from cancer. She was 77 years old. She is survived by her husband Paul, her children Roberta Goble, Pamala Hayes, Christine Goble, and Michael Goble along with 7 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren. She also has sisters Lanie Adamson (predeceased), Patricia Lewis and a brother John Mergel.

Barbara enjoyed life and her attitude made her many friends over the years in both her personal and professional life. She retired from Manpower after working a 4-year “temporary” assignment with National City Mortgage where at one point she had two other people reporting to her.

In her personal life, she loved traveling, dancing, baking, water aerobics, and getting together with her family. The children especially enjoyed the ideas she came up with at Easter for the scavenger hunts that eventually turned into the Easter bean bag miniature golf course.

A celebration of her life will be held at Tobias Funeral Home, 5471 Far Hills Ave., Dayton, OH on Thursday, Feb. 16, 2023 at 12:00PM. Friends and family may visit from 10:00AM until the time of service Thursday. Burial will follow in Miami Valley Memory Gardens. In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution in her name to the American Cancer Society (cancer.org). Visit www.tobiasfuneralhome.com for more information.
