Barbara was a 1951 graduate of The Phoenixville High School, and she continued to meet yearly for a luncheon with her classmates. She was employed by Synthane-Taylor in Oaks until it closed in 1984 but continued to meet with her co-workers for special breakfasts on Good Friday and Black Friday at the Spring-Ford Diner. She was a faithful member of the Green Tree Church of the Brethren where she worked at the Peach Festivals, Chicken BBQ's and Roast Beef Dinners, and assisted in Sunday School and the Nursery Room with her sister Arlene.

Barbara's interests included large holiday dinners, weekly Sunday breakfasts, weekly family girls' night, traveling with her sisters on bus trips, swimming, walking, roller skating, dancing, cryptograms and trying to keep the Gebhardt family in line. In her spare time, she cared for family and friends as needs arose.

After retirement from Synthane-Taylor, her new career of caring for great grandchildren as they were born ended when the youngest, Evan, entered Kindergarten in 2018.

An outdoor memorial service will be held in Barbara's honor at Green Tree Church of The Brethren, 1078 Egypt Road, Oaks, PA, 19456 on Saturday, September 19, 2020 at 10:30 am, with interment in the Green Tree Cemetery immediately following. Officiating will be the Rev. J. Rodney O'Donnell.
