Barbara A. Herring was a devoted wife, amazing mother and the best Mommom that her grandchildren could have.  She was faithfully devoted to making sure her family was loved and cared for.

The only thing more important to Barbara than her relationship with the Lord was the joy she received in knowing her children and grandchildren walk with the Lord.

She was surrounded by her family at the time of her passing, on Saturday, August 22, 2009.  She and her surviving spouse of 58 years, Walter, were dedicated laymen in the Church of the Nazarene active in churches in Pennsylvania, California, Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia.

Barbara particularly enjoyed sharing her gift of hospitality, preparing dinners for various church functions.  As an artist she shared her love of painting, holding classes at the churches she attended.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by her four daughters, Helen, wife of Ron McCormick of Manassas, VA, Beverly, wife of Rick Quevedo, of Mufreesboro, TN, Ruth, wife of Lee Russell of Kennett Square, PA, and Carol, wife of David Cargile, of Lancaster, PA, 6 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, 3 beloved sisters and one devoted brother.

A Celebration of Barbara's life will be held Wednesday morning, August 26, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. with visitation beginning at 9:00 a.m., at The Lancaster Church of the Nazarene, 2150 New Holland Pike, Lancaster, PA. Interment will follow at Union Hill Cemetery, Kennett Square, Pa.

In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to a memorial fund in her name at The Lancaster Church of the Nazarene.
