Barbara Bordewisch-Beam Obituary
Barbara Bordewisch-Beam was a daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend to many. She enjoyed euchre, word games, reading, and traveling. Barbara is predeceased by her parents, Donald and Joanne Bordewisch (McIntosh) and her sister Betsy Crabill (2005). Barbara is survived by sisters Brenda "Sam" Kennedy of Texas and Jill Wanser (Richard) of Georgia; 6 nieces and nephews, 10 great nieces and nephews, and several cousins and close friends. In true practical Barb-fashion, she did not wish for any services to be held. Barbara and family ask, if you wish, that you make a donation to the American Cancer Society or a charity of your choice in her honor.

Dear Jill, Sam and the entire family. My heart is with you.
Barb and I had a running joke of saying Hi Barb and Hi Barb each time we would see each other. The last time was at the all class reunion several years ago. She was one of a kind.
I will continue to keep you all in my prayers in the days ahead.
