Barbara Zoub Obituary

Debbie,Jeff and Andy- I just read of the tragic death of your Mother. Felt compelled to write something being an old pal.... I am so sorry and will keep you all in my prayers. Bill Hargrave

We are very sorry to hear of the loss of Barbara. We knew Bud & Barbara first as clients in Surprise, Arizona, and then became friends. She will be missed very much, and we feel honored to have known such a wonderful lady.

Our condolences to the family. Barbara was a wonderful friend to my mother, Ruth Klein. Our thoughts are with you

To Max and Barbara's Children:

I am so very shocked and so sorry to hear about this tragedy. Barb was such a pleasure to treat over the years and also a great friend. I wish her and all of you my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Sincerely, Erinn Panveno

To all the hundreds of loving friends of my mother:

Although my brothers and I are still in shock and experiencing tremendous difficulty wrapping our brains around this impossible tragedy, I feel that I need to reach out to all of you and let you all know this:

We feel blessed by the last couple of days with the overwhelming love, compassion and kindness from the very large world of my mother. The stories like, "I met your mother two weeks ago and she was my new best friend." has given us comfort in what we already knew... My mother had the most amazing life and touched so many with her kindness, compassion and grace. I am grateful for what a full and interesting life she shared with me. I am grateful and blessed with being able to say my mother was my best friend. I am grateful for the hugs you have all given me in the last few days. They kept my on my feet and kept me from falling apart. My mother would have loved that. In fact, I'm sure she did because she has been all around us. She loved you all.

With sincerest gratitude,

Debbie

Dear Jeff, Debbie and Andy,
Please let me express my condolences to you and your family on the tragic death of your mother. This wonderful lady was an very old friend of our family and was a bridesmaid at my wedding over 55 years ago. Please keep her memory as a blessing for your family in the years ahead. I am sorry.

My deepest condolences to the Zoub family. I never personally knew Barbara, but felt as though I had through Randy and his great stories he has shared with me about her during the course of our friendship. What an incredibly beautiful memorial service and loving tribute to such an extraordinary woman.

MY DEEPEST HEART FELT PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE ZOUB FAMILY.I FIRST MET BARBARA @ LINCOLN PARK TENNIS CLUB.I RENTED THE TOP FLOOR OF HER GRAY STONE ON WISCONSON.SHE WAS A FABULOUS LADY WITH THE ENERGY OF SOMEONE 20 YEARS YOUNGER.MAY HER SPIRIT & LOVE OF LIFE CARRY YOU THROUGH THESE TOUGH TIMES. GOD BLESS.

Aw Debbers, What a shock! Roberta and I were at the service today, in the balcony and saw all the hugs you received. You are beautiful and you are loved. Lovely service. What the Rabbi read for you was perfect. I'll see you tomorrow and give you a hug of my own. Love,

Barbara touched my life,personally and professionally, with kindness and genuine affection. I will miss her open smile & her jogging suits. My deepest sympathies to her family.

Len and I have known Barbara for over 51 years, when we first saw her in the middle of a circle of people at a party, entertaining. She was charismatic, dynamic, stunning and absolutely fabulous! We connected with each other then and have always had a special relationship, albeit long distance. But whenever I visited Chicago, we always met and it was just the same as always - a close friendship.
We are heartbroken to hear of Barbara's death - her vibrant spirit will always be with Len and me. She was a true friend and we will remember her with joy. The stunning picture she painted and gave us has always hung in a place of honor in our home.
Our sympathies to Bud and her children and grandchildren. She loved them deeply. She was am indomitable spirit who will live on in our hearts.

I had the pleasure of working with Barbara in my real estate career and would run into her occasionally at the manicure salon. She was such a lovely woman and had so many great stories about her family and her adventurous travels.
My deepest thoughts are with you at this time.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

We will hold you always in our hearts.
The joy you brought to everyone you touched will always be cherished.

Bud, Debbie and families, We are so sorry for your loss, and ours. We cherish the few short memories we have shared in Airzona. The world was blessed by her presence, and is diminished with her death. Our hearts and prayers are with each of you. Love, the Durkins

Barbara was a wonderful friend to my mother and became a close friend of ours. Our family has shared many wonderful times with her.

May she rest in peace.

I have known Barbara since we were five years old and lived next door to one anotherin Austin. I knew her parents and remember the early death of her father when Barbara was in college. Her mom,Lillian lived a long, fruitful life. As a youngster Barbara was so skinny that her mom was constantly giving her chocolate milk to fatten her up.We played jump rope and hop scotch, went to Emmet grammer school directly the street, and tried to avoid the the patrol boys on the corner by crossing in the middle of the street. We remained friends forever. June Rosner

I am sorry to hear about your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

Bill and I have known Barbara for close to 30 years....aside from being a great "agent"...she was a great friend. We will miss her smile, her style, and her laugh.....Bud and the kids are in our thoughts and prayers.
