Barbara E. (Banning) Gaughan Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on January 27, 2026, at the age of 84, Barbara E. (Banning) Gaughan of Omaha, Nebraska, born in Union, Nebraska passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Barbara E. (Banning) Gaughan to pay them a last tribute.
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, Hollis Banning and Amanda Banning. She is survived by: her husband Bill Gaughan; her children, Kevin Gaughan (Jennifer) and Kelley Gaughan (Amber); and her granddaughters, Kate and Abby Gaughan.
In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Sacred Heart Cues Foodbank, St. Vincent Depaul Foodbank, and Legal Aid of Nebraska (http://www.legalaidofnebraska.org).
