Cramer, Barbara Leah Goldberg Age 82, of Chicago and most recently St. Paul, MN, passed away May 12, 2019. Preceded in death by her parents, Arthur J. Goldberg and Dorothy K. Goldberg. Loving mother of Daniel Cramer (Cassie), Matthew Cramer and Jesse Cramer (Kris). Proud, grandmother of Miriam. Dear sister of Bob Goldberg and beloved Aunte-Tante to her nieces and nephews. Survived also by her cousins and many friends. Barbara was the rock of her family. A confidante to her friends. A grand dame with impeccable style. A lover of the arts and travel. A justice advocate. A lifelong Cubs fan and a voracious reader. Perhaps most of all though, Barbara was legendary for her hospitality. She opened her home and shared her table. She hosted like nobody else. She will be desperately missed. Services, Sunday, May 19, 11:00 a.m. at KAM Isaiah Israel Congregation. Chicago, IL. Memorial contributions may be made to the American Red Cross.
