O B I T U A R Y

Barbara Andrea Milito-Smith

3 DECEMBER, 1954 – 27 DECEMBER, 2021

Facebook 31 January 2018, photo portrait of Barbara; quarter profile, breast piece, leaning on right elbow; seemingly taken at a brick-wall of warm earth colours.

		As if gently questioning, Barbara looks slightly up into the camera. She rests the lower part of her right cheek onto the bent fingers of her relaxedly closed right hand. On her little finger gleams a silver-band and her ring finger shows a beaded disk. 

		Barbara wears short blond hair and modest make-up. The outer end of her left eyebrow carries a tiny piercing ring. A pendant on a thin, long, and dark chain rests on her chest, harmonizing with small, unobtrusive ear hangers. An elaborated, elegant silver bangle adorns her right lower arm.

		Over a seemingly black blouse, Barbara wears an elegant black jacket, probably velvet, adorned from her shoulders down with a slender garland of red broidery.   

		Obviously, the portrait-photo was edited with an application, adding in the top right corner a bright white light that sheds hair thin rays, and two reflections of the light in the lower left corner.

IN THE CARE OF
Woodlawn Mission Funeral Home

It is with great sadness that the family of
BARBARA MILITO SMITH (Kihew Iskwew)
announce that Barbara has gone
to be with Jesus and with her son, John Milito.

Born on Dec. 03, 1954 in Stuttgart Germany,
and a twin to Andrea Hample,
Barb passed away peacefully in her home
on Monday December 27, 2021
at the age of 67 years young.

Barbara is survived by
her daughter: Rheana Fast,
Grandchildren: Anthony Fast, Aliyah (Ali) Fast,
and Dominic Milito, Sister: Andrea Hample and
nieces Claudia and Daniella in Germany.

Barb had many children that called her mom,
and others that called her auntie.
She had long time friends to whom she was a sister, and
an adopted indigenous community that wrapped her in love.
Barb was a pillar in the community and she will be missed.

Due to COVID we will
not be holding a service at this time, however;
we will have a celebration of life for Barb in the summer
... when her garden is in full bloom on JUNE 21, 2022

A Viewing and prayers for
family and close friends will take place on:

THURSDAY JAN 13 @ 2-3pm

Barbara Milito, 7 april 2015. Barbara's banner on Facebook shows a forest path. Green light streams through tree stems and branches from the right, falling on the path and bushes to the left of the path. A forest as she will be remembered to have loved to roam.

Hush! A Gift from My Genwar

Kihew Iskwew liked receiving responses by e-mail: “Enjoy, and tell me how you like it”. Since she passed away on 27 December, 2021, you could consider mailing to “Genwar”, short for Gentle Warrior. - Mail Button from Destiny's Design 1999.  Back to Kihew Iskwew's Home Page.
