Dear Wingerter Family,
It is with sadness that we learn of Barb’s death. Our connection to her usually was when we would be attending sports activities, like the Blue Devil boys’ basketball games. She did have a good sense of humor.
Thinking of you and remembering Barb.
As ever,
Pat & Dick Wentura.
May God bless and comfort your Vic and all your family. When we were Washington school kids I remember her being so good to us kids. I remember you telling us The Beach Boys sang Barbra Ann about your mom…😊💕💕 in Mr. Wegman’s class. 5th grade.
Barb was one of my favorites at QJHS. She had a heart of gold and I will miss her tremendously

Thank you Jane, she really loved you. She is our special angel now.
Vic and family,
I’ll always remember Barb from QJHS. She was always good for a laugh and a smile. She was a great cook and she cared about the students and staff. Find comfort in the memories.
Rest in peace lady! I enjoyed getting to know you when Paul was in Sycamore and then crossed paths with you again at Sunset. May you rest in peace. Glad you and Paul are now reunited.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Barb was a great person she will be missed by all that knew her.
Barb was one of a kind. She accepted everyone without a thought and treated everyone like family! Her quick wit, sense of humor and the way she embraced every day are how I will remember her. What a legacy she left for her family, friends and community! Prayers for comfort to her family and all those who loved her. Love you all, Mary & Mark
Before retiring a few years back I drove a school bus occasionally when she was the rider . She always did a great job organizing and encouraging the kids. She always had an energetic attitude and so many of us will forever miss her smile. Deepest sympathy to family and friends.
Dennis and family. I’m so sorry for your family’s’ loss. May she rest in peace!🙏🏾
Thank you so much .
