Barbara A. Lauer passed away on Monday, September 27, 2021, at age 75 in Pleasant View Communities in Manheim, PA. She had been diagnosed with lung cancer in late July and entered Hospice care in mid-August.

Barb graduated from Lancaster Catholic High School, 1964, and then from the Notre Dame of Maryland University, in Baltimore, in 1968, with a degree in Chemistry. Most of her career was spent working for Warner Lambert, as a Chemist, in Lititz.

Barb loved traveling and being outdoors especially driving along the Skyline Drive and visiting the Smoky Mountains National Park. She also loved going to craft fairs where she collected many crafted wooden objects. Every year, Barb worked very hard on her garden and yard, and when she had to be indoors, she loved doing crossword puzzles, drinking Coca-Cola, and watching mystery shows.

Barb was the eldest daughter of the late Paul V. and Anna C. (Schaller) Lauer. She is survived by two sisters, Ann L. Schweitzer (wife of John), Ephrata, and Rose M. Dombach (wife of Fred), Lititz, and two nephews, John and James, and their spouses and a grandnephew and grandniece.
