Barbara Lohr Obituary
Barbara Lee Donald Lohr died Monday, February 16, 2015 at the University of Virginia Medical Center.Born on June 6, 1934 in Orange County, she moved to Charlottesville as an adult and called it home.

Sorry for your loss. Barbara was my first cousin. We played together as children. Had lost track of each other.

auntie Barbara was such a special woman in my life. She was the big sister I always wanted. She taught me about boys, makeup,and how to dress. She got me my first real job. She was maid of honor at my wedding. Heaven has truly gained an angel.
