Barbara L. Sales

December 28, 1935 – February 22, 2020

 

Barbara Lee Sales, 84 of Omaha, passed away February 22, 2020, with her family by her side.

She was born to the late Jasper Donaghue and Thelma (King) Donaghue, December 28th, 1935, in Pratt Kansas.  Barbara received a Bachelor of Arts in 1958 and a Master of Arts in 1978 from Oklahoma State University.

She married Joseph Sales in 1961, and they lived together in multiple States during their 59 years before settling down in Papillion, Nebraska.  Barbara is survived by her husband and three children: Colonel Joseph Sales (USMC – Retired), Clay Sales, Holly Sales and Travis Sales; she is also survived by two grandchildren.

First and foremost, Barbara was a dedicated wife and mother.  She treasured her family and embraced every moment with them.  She especially loved her role as Nana.  Barbara was an accomplished quilter, serving as President of the Nebraska Quilt Guild, and enjoyed numerous other arts and crafts, and was an avid reader.  She passed her artistic creativity to all her children.  Barbara was immensely proud of her family and leaves behind nothing but beautiful memories.

As per her wishes, no memorial services are scheduled as she will, at a later date with her husband, be buried at sea.
