Barbara Ellen Cobb

Barbara Ellen Cobb was born on November 29, 1950 in Dearborn Heights, MI where she lived for about 18 years. She graduated from Crestwood High School and soon thereafter drove to California and attended De Anza College. There she met and later married, Charles Howard Cobb. Their family flourished in the same home in Santa Clara, California for 46 years. After a stroke in 2003, she overcame a myriad of health issues but landed back in the hospital a few times over the past year as her body was just unable to continue working so hard. The decision was made to bring her home where she could be comfortable and that is where she passed peacefully, the morning of Monday, August 24, 2015 at 64 years old. She is survived by her husband, daughter Jennifer and her 3 children, son Christopher and his 3 children and daughter Natalie and her 1 child, all living in California as well as her 2 brothers, Donald and William and mother Virginia who is still in her childhood home in Michigan. Donations may be made in her honor to the charity of your choice. Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2015 at 11AM at Hope Lutheran Church, 2383 Pacific Dr., Santa Clara.
