Barbara Louise McLaughlin, 84, passed away on Saturday, Aug. 12 at home, surrounded by family. She grew up in Bremen, with one sister and five brothers. Childhood stories of a welcoming and loving home for friends and family, a pet pig, a dog named Penny and sisterly love fests involving torn dresses and scissors always made us laugh. Getting hit by a truck, hitchhiking, and sending tourists in circles were early signs of the mischief she enjoyed creating her whole life. This high school graduate was a smarty, sought out by engineers for her commonsense feedback on new products during her 19 years at GTE Sylvania. Her intelligence, work ethic, and silliness made her a beloved employee and friend.
