Daughter of Marilyn Roebuck and Frank Consolo, Barbara is survived by her mother; siblings Vincent, Tish, Frank and Sister-in-law Susan; niece Iris and Godchild Chad.
Born in Encino, California, Barbara graduated from Granda Hills High and received her nursing degree from UCLA. She began her career in the nursery at Holy Cross Hospital.

Later in life she was an actress in theater, film and television. Barbara transitioned from this life on August 24th after a long struggle with Parkinson's. She was a thoughtful and generous woman who cared deeply for all the people and animals in her life.

Barbara was my cousin. She loved me. She took me to Hawaii. She taught me how to drive. She grew up with me. She was always kind, she was smart. She could ice skate. She could play the piano. She could sing. She was a registered nurse, but the only thing that really really mattered was that she Loved God, Loved Herself, and Loved others in Truth. Aloha Barb. i'll catch up to you one glorious day. Love, Angela

Barbara Consolo was my dear friend. In her life she was a nurse for the US Olympics Team in Los Angeles, the resident nurse on many a television series and a woman who truly loved life. I'm going to miss you Barbara and I will always be grateful to have had you in my life.

Barbara's condition limited her ability to communicate as effectively as she would have liked but in a very special way she was capable of conveying her deep sense of gratitude for those who cared for and supported her. Marilyn, thank you for your exempelary, deep and abiding commitment to providing her every need.

Barbara was a wonderful daughter, sister and friend to many. I did not know her well personally, but for many years have known her very well through her loving mother, Marilyn. She was a strong woman who gave all of herself to those around her. Be in peace, happy and free from pain, dear Barbara, while you wait for those here on Earth to follow you and reunite.

While I only met Barbara in the last year, I felt her courage, her compassion, AND her pain. And my prayers are with her family and friends for her loss. I know that she is in a better place now and free of suffering, and for that I am grateful. Blessings and light from heaven to all.

In the 6+ years I have known Barbara through church, she has always held a place of love in my heart. In some ways she helped me become ordained as well, and for that I will always be eternally grateful. I know how she has suffered, but I also know she is at rest finally, but her immortality is assured in the love of all who knew her in life, friends and family alike. God Bless you Barbara
