Barbara Emily Grunwald Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on May 1, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Barbara Emily Grunwald (Virginia Beach, Virginia), born in Bridgeport, Connecticut. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

Though her name may fade from the lips of time, the imprint Barbara leaves upon the hearts of her loved ones remains eternally vivid — a testament to the depth of her spirit and the richness of her legacy.

She was predeceased by: her husband Frank M. Grunwald; and her parents, Frank W. Erhardt and Catherine Erhardt (Tomac). She is survived by: her sons, Timothy Grunwald (Dawn) of Virginia Beach, VA and Andrew Grunwald of Carmel, IN; and her grandchildren, John, James, Annie Grunwald of Virginia Beach, VA, Stephanie and Drew Grunwald of Carmel, IN..
