Barbara Ann Fyfe (nee Quilter) 74, of Waretown, passed away on June 18th after a

long battle with Alzheimer’s Disease.

Barbara was born on February 10, 1949 to Marian and James Quilter in West New

York, New Jersey. After she graduated from Memorial High School in 1966, Barbara

went on to study nursing.

After graduating with a degree in Nursing, Barbara started her first job at Christ

Hospital in Jersey City as a nurse. This kickstarted a lifelong year career in healthcare

that culminated with her serving as an Administrator of several nursing homes

throughout New Jersey. Barbara also dabbled as a realter and travel agent in her free

time.

In 1967, Barbara married Kenneth Fyfe and they went on to have two children, Susan

and Kenneth Junior.

Barbara was an avid cruiser (50 plus sea adventures!). When not cruising, planning

her next trip, or rooting for her New York Giants, she could be found at a slot

machine in her beloved Atlantic City. She was also an active member at the Holiday

Beach Club in Waretown.

Above all, Barbara will be remembered by family and friends for her generosity.

Barbara was predeceased by parents Marian and James Quilter. She is survived by

husband Kenneth Fyfe, daughter Susan McDonald of Jackson, New Jersey, son

Kenneth Fyfe Jr. of Browns Mills, New Jersey; three grandchildren Alex, Nicholas,

and Calista; brothers James and Thomas Quilter and sister Dawn Chromey.

A Celebration of Barbara’s Life is being planned for later this summer. Details will be

shared at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the

Alzheimer’s Association or VITAS Hospice and Palliative Care.
