Barbara Joan Schlosberg, 84, of Leawood, Kansas, died on July 30.
Memorial services were held on Aug. 2 at Town Village of Leawood. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions to Kansas City Hospice House, 12000 Wornall Rd., Kansas City, MO 64145.
Barbara was born Jan. 1, 1940, to the late Max and Gertrude Green in Bronx, New York City, New York. She graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School and married Stewart Schlosberg in 1958. Even after a move to California in 1974, she remained a New Yorker at heart. Barbara and Stewart then had an extended stay in Prescott Valley, Arizona, before moving to Kansas in 2021 to be close to family.
Barbara was an avid reader and loved music. You would be hard pressed to find a bigger fan of Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett or Lady Gaga.
Barbara was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Richard Green. She is survived by her husband of 66 years, Stewart; sons and daughter in-law, Marc and Barbara Schlosberg of Leawood and David Schlosberg and Sheila Clancy of Sydney, Australia; and her granddaughters (who were the loves of her life after having two sons), Rachael, Sarah, Mira and Valerie.
The family would like to extend special appreciation to Shawnee Cecil and Dawn Callow of Kansas City Hospice and to the staff of Synergy Homecare.
