Barbara's Obituary:
Barbara Ellison Forman, 63, passed away Saturday, June 6, 2015 at Beacon Place in Greensboro.
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.
