SINGLETON BARBARA L. (STUPAK) ...
SINGLETON BARBARA L. (STUPAK) Age 71, on Wednesday, June 14, 2017, of Whitehall. The world just lost the kindest, loving, most compassionate person on this earth, and what is amazing is she never knew it. Barb was truly the person everyone wanted to be. If only two people were allowed in heaven, surely Barb would be one of them. She had the distinction of having all friends and no enemies. Saying she will be missed is a gross understatement. From voted the most popular girl from St. Mary of the Mount Class of 1963, to the loving and caring wife, mother and doting MiMi. So many memories of everything she did for others, and as always never for herself, because that was her. Unfortunately the only one smiling now is God because heaven must have needed another angel. Barb is survived by her loving husband Frank Singleton of 51 years; and her children, Mike (Diane) and Krissy (Mark) Rackley. She is the proud MiMi of Nicole, Laura, Jack and Liza. She is also survived by her siblings, Ken (Judy) Stupak, Bob (Cindy) Stupak and Dan (Chris) Stupak; and nieces and nephews Heather, Jenna, Bobby, Don and John. Friends will be received at the JOHN F. SLATER FUNERAL HOME, INC., 412-881-4100, 4201 Brownsville Road, Brentwood 15227, Thursday and Friday, June 15 and 16, 2017, 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. Funeral Prayer on Saturday morning at 9:00 a.m. Mass of Christian Burial in St. Mary of the Mount Church at 10:00 a.m. Please send condolences to: www.johnfslater.com.
