Barbara Ann Douglas, 89, of Brevard, passed away on Sunday, November 2, 2025. A native of Toledo, Ohio, she was the daughter of the late Fredrick Richard Hoffman and the late Bernice Hausmann Hoffman. In addition to her parents she was also preceded in death by her son, Bret James Douglas.
A devout Catholic and member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, she loved to travel, particularly to the National Parks. She enjoyed water skiing, hiking and tennis and she supported P.E.O. for women’s education.
