Barbara Louise Lickman

Barbara L. (Quinn) Lickman, 85, of Schuylkill Haven, passed away after a short illness on Thursday, May 29th, at Seton Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Orwigsburg.

Born in Palo Alto, she was the daughter of the late Helen (Heine) and Warren J. Quinn Sr.

Barbara earned her Master's Degree in Social Work, and was a hospice volunteer for 10 years. She loved animals and there was always a dog or cat or two with her during her life. She also very much enjoyed traveling, visiting China, Ireland, Kenya and the Galapagos Islands. Key West and Hawaii, though not as far away, also held a special place in her heart.

Her family gathered from far and wide, to surround and support her during her final days and as she began her next journey.

The family would like to extend their deep and sincere gratitude to the staff at Seton Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for their extraordinary care and loving support during Barbara's time there.

Barbara is survived by two daughters, Lori (Lickman) Quinn, wife of Dustin M. Smith, of Denver, CO; Lynn Lickman, of Schuylkill Haven; and a son, Quinn Lickman, of Orwigsburg. She is also survived by a sister, Miriam (Quinn) Metaxas; a brother, Warren J. Quinn, Jr.; six grandchildren; and two great grandchildren.

In addition to her parents, Barbara is preceded in death by a daughter, Lisa Lickman and a son, Ronald H. Lickman.
