Barbara Singer Obituary

Barbara Cobner Singer
Oct. 5, 1946 - Apr. 10, 2020
Brentwood, CA
Barbara died peacefully on April 10, Good Friday, at the age of 73. Born in Chicago, IL to Bert & Ellen Cobner, she was later a resident of Camden, NJ and West Chester, PA before moving to California where she lived in San Ramon, Monterey and ultimately Brentwood. Barbara loved being a mother and a grandmother, and her spirit of generosity will forever be remembered – she gave freely of her time and resources whether it was being a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for Children in Monterey County, working for the AIDS Community Research Consortium (ACRC), feeding her homemade mac & cheese to the homeless or volunteering in her grandchildren's classrooms. She is survived by her sons Joe (Betsy) Niedziejko and John (Kendra) Niedziejko; grandchildren Joey, Sammie, Kaitlin and Austin Niedziejko; sisters Susan (Arthur) Kluge and Ginny (Koven) Smith; nephews, their wives, grand-niece and grand-nephews. We look forward to holding a celebration of Barbara's life when large gatherings are declared safe again.

I am grateful to have met Barbara through family and friends gatherings throughout the years. She had the most beautiful eyes and her smile brightened the day. She loved her family and she loved life. Her bravely and courage in tough times was to be admired. Her presence will be missed but I take solace that she is free and soaring on to the heavens on her next journey. All my love to her family and friends. Barbara lived a beautiful life and she will live in our hearts for like the soul love is internal. It's the love that gets us through.
