Memorial Notice: Barbara Ellison Forman

 
 
 
 

 

I am sad to share that Barbara Ellison Forman, step-mother of BK member Regan Forman, passed away yesterday, Saturday, June 6, 2015 in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Born September 8, 1951, a Greensboro native, Barbara lived her life fearlessly. She was outspoken, extraordinarily generous and extremely talented. A member of the NC Woodworkers Association, she devoted a great deal of her time to creating wooden urns for unidentified fallen veterans and angel ornaments for bereaved parents. Besides her family, doing for others was her greatest passion.
Barbara was preceded in death by her parents, Charles and Jeanne Ellison and grandson, Jagger Ellison Kern.

She is survived by her husband of 27 years, Richard Forman, daughter Lauren Kern, granddaughter Imaly Harris; three step-children, Rhyan Kime (Bo), Regan Forman Gross (Oded), Daniel Forman (Melissa); seven additional grandchildren, Brianna, Kaitlyn, Noa, Asher, Robert, Declan and Ronan; her sister Patricia Cegles (Bill), brother Stephen Ellison, two nieces and a nephew.


 

A funeral service  will be held on Monday, June 8th at 4:00pm at Temple Emanuel in Greensboro, Rabbis Fred Guttman and Andy Koren officiating. Burial to follow at the Greensboro Hebrew Cemetery. Shiva will be in North Carolina at the home of Regan's father.

Memorial contributions may be made to Heartstrings Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support, 233 W. Mountain St. Kernersville, NC 27284 or Temple Emanuel of Greensboro 1129 Jefferson Rd. Greensboro, NC 27410, or Bnai Keshet.
