We bid farewell to Barbara Eckert of Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, whose journey of life gracefully concluded on September 1, 2025 at the age of 71. Barbara touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Barbara had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Barbara may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Robert Mulhollem and Eleanor Madara (Duke); her husband Charles A. "Chuck" Eckert; her children, Timothy C. Eckert of Fort Myers, FL, Thomas A. Eckert of Mechanicsburg, PA and Tanya M. Eckert (John Sparenberg) of Glen Rock, PA.; and her grandson Christopher Charles Eckert.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Alzheimer's Association.
