Kurtis Knobel '69 said:

Barbara A. Flanagan, 62, of Lancaster, passed into peaceful rest on February 28, 2014 in the company of her family after a battle with cancer.

Barbara was born to Mary Ann (Wilding) and Richard Maushardt in Pittsburgh, PA. She attended St. Albert Grade School and then Baldwin High School from which she graduated in 1969.

All who knew Barbara will remember her for kindness. Everyone who became acquainted with her immediately felt comfortable in her company and friendships developed with ease.

More than anything else, Barbara loved her family, especially her children and granddaughter. Her life revolved around their hopes and ambitions. When her daughter, Laura, tragically died it left a hole in her heart that was always present. Her faith carried her forward.

Barb loved children. She volunteered at the Church of the Brethren Nursery School, and when evening came her conversations always came back to children, both hers and others she had seen that day.

She is survived by husband, J. Michael Flanagan of Lancaster; sons: M. Casey Flanagan, M.D. of Washington D.C., John L. and Joseph P. Flanagan of Lancaster; and granddaughter, Sutton W. Flanagan of Washington D.C.

Barbara is also survived by her mother, Mary Ann Maushardt; and two sisters: Deborah Jeziorski, wife of Leo, and Carol Maushardt all of Pittsburgh, PA.
