Barbara Hanson Obituary

Barbara Hanson, 88

With heavy hearts, yet with grateful hearts for the life she lived, the family of Barbara Hanson announces that she has gone to be with her Lord and Savior. Though we mourn her passing, we take comfort in knowing that Barbara is now whole, healed, and joyfully reunited with those who went before her, praising Jesus and resting in His presence.

Barbara's faith guided her life, her love shaped her family, and her gentle presence brought comfort and joy to many. She will be deeply missed and forever cherished by all who were blessed to know her.

All who knew and loved Barbara are warmly invited to celebrate her life on January 31, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at Trinity Lutheran Church 400 W. California in Kalispell.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
