Barbara Listick Obituary

Listick, Barbara Ann
February 27, 1937 - November 5, 2010
Our beloved Barbara was born in Brooklyn, New York and moved to California prior to beginning High School. After graduating Beverly Hills High, Barbara married Frank Listick and started a family. With a sunny outlook on life, she created a warm and loving home. She was a selfless, generous, sweet, caring and beautiful person with a great sense of humor and style. She was a much loved volunteer at Valley Presbyterian Hospital for 10 years and worked for L.A. Unified School District for over 20.

Barbara is survived by her sister and brother-in-law, Judy Nesburn and Howard Jaskol, her daughter and son-in-law, Beverly and Lee Learman, her son and daughter-in-law, Barton and Karen Listick, her five granddaughters, Rebecca, Lisa, Tess, Emily and Kate and numerous friends and other family members.

Barbara was preceded in death by her beloved husband Frank Listick in 1993. In lieu of flowers, kindly make donations in Barbara's memory to the Hirshberg Foundation for Pancreatic Cancer Research.
