Barbara was born in Sayre, Pa. November 9th, 1933 to the late Adrian and Hazel Shay. She is preceded in death by her husband Richard, her daughter Sue Barnes, her son Mark, her grandson Mark Barnes, her brothers Richard and Adrian Jr Shay.
Barbara is survived by her daughters Linda Fitzgerald, (Orlando), Sandra Peterson (Paisley), twins Debra Carcana (Manhattan, NY) and Richard Roberts Jr (Cindy)(Grand Forks, ND), son Joseph Roberts (Orlando), and daughter Lisa Tarbert (Dale) (Titusville). Many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, and her furry friend Snookie ( AKA Snookers) who all loved her dearly.
Barbara worked for Sewell Plastics. Although she retired in 1995 she then went on to work for Airport Security.
Barbara enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren. She was giving and selfless, always putting others first. She loved them all unconditionally. Barbara was her own kind of special; also thoughtful, caring and always had good advice. She never came to your house empty-handed. She was soft-spoken and loved great conversations. She loved talking about politics, sewing, crocheting, knitting, and enjoyed playing soda crush. She was a fantastic cook and her baking was phenomenal. Her loss deeply saddens the family. She is going to be dearly missed and will always live on in the hearts of her loved ones. Never goodbye, but see you later.
