Barbara (England) Smith, 66, of Manassas, Virginia passed away on April 19th, 2020 at Leewood Nursing Home. She was predeceased by her parents, Col. James John England and Jacqueline Lee England. She is survived by her sister Deborah England, her niece Sarah (England) Waite (and her husband Sean), great-niece Taylor Leigh Banscher, and great-nephew Garrett James Waite.
Barbara (or Bobo as she was affectionately called in the family) had recently retired as a Customer Service Manager at Ethan Allen’s flagship store in Tyson’s Corner. She had a flair for decorating (especially for Halloween) and entertaining. She was also a gifted artist. Barbara was a very private person and homebody who spent her free time gardening and playing with her beloved dogs (her babies.) Bobo loved her annual beach vacation with her niece’s family at the Outer Banks and eating crabs. She brightened every holiday and family get together and will be deeply missed.
Her funeral will be held, at a date yet to be determined, at St. Andrews’s Episcopal Church, in Burke, Va.
