Barbara Marie Franceschi

Our darling Barbara Franceschi, loving Mother, Sister & Nani, took her final breath on the morning of September 17th, 2022. She is received into heaven by her loving husband, Richard Franceschi (who has waited a long 18 years to reunite with her), her mother and father Annie & Charles Kawa and her brother, Richard. She is survived by her four children, Ronald, Steven, David (Kirstie) & Nina (Kevin), her sisters Joanne & Marlene, her grandchildren Denise, Kara, Tina, Chuck, Jessica, Ricky and Emma, her great-grandchildren Westley, Ava, Shooter, Daisy, Mackenzie, Giovanni, Ford, Milania, Brady, Kinsley, Saylor, Lainey, two grand-babies on the way, her best family friend Julie Mancini and many, many extended family members who all loved and will miss her so very much. She was the best Mother and Nani who was always there for her family. Barbara loved her doggies, shopping, cooking for family, being outside in her garden and feeding her birdies. She always brought a smile to everyone’s face and made sure their bellies were happy and full as well. She spent her life caring for others, a homemaker who first raised and cared for her four children and husband and then her grandchildren. To know her was to love her. If would like to pay your respects, you are welcome to attend the visitation at Parent-Sorensen Mortuary in Sebastopol on Friday, September 23rd between 11:00am and 2:00pm, the graveside service at Forestview Cemetery in Forestville on Monday, September 26th at 10:00am and the reception will immediately follow at the family home with all parking at the Forestville Youth Park. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the El Molino Little League at P.O. Box 775 Forestville, CA 95436 in her honor.
