Barbara M. Eberly Obituary
We are sad to announce that on January 8, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Barbara M. Eberly of Oblong, Illinois. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Barbara M. Eberly to show support.
As Barbara departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Barbara may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Barbara leaves behind.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Lyman O. Stevenson and Thelma June Earnst Stevenson. She is survived by: her children, Steven Eberly (Kathy) of Livingston and Diann Bomer (Keith) of Oblong; her grandchildren, Bruce Eberly-Macolburn (Michele) of Franklinton, Benjamin Bomer of Oblong, Kara Kurtz (Aaron) of Newton and Trish Martin (A. J.) of St. Joseph, Illinois; and her brother Harry Stevenson (Barbara) of Milano, Texas. She is also survived by six great-grandchildren; three great-great-grandchildren.
