Conor, Sean, Megan, Ryan, and Kevin Fraher, and Keegan and Shane Kavanagh held a very special place in their hearts for their grandaunt Barbara. Attending St. Paul's grammar school and St. Paul's High School, Barbara went onto earn a full scholarship to Lone Mountain College for Women (Class of 1947) and received her Master's Degree. Barbara loved her profession, teaching 1st and 2nd grade in the San Francisco Public School System at Hillcrest School and Guadalupe School for 40 years. Although she never had children of her own, she always felt her students were her children and that love was reciprocal. She had a passion for traveling the world and loved visiting and exploring exotic locations like Egypt, India, Turkey, and Russia. However, spending time and visiting her cousins in Ireland made it her most beloved destination. Post retirement, she spent her time volunteering at St. Anne's home. She was a loyal San Francisco sports fan to her Giants, 49ers and Warriors and loved attending games. She enjoyed spending time with her lifelong friends around a card table playing bridge and she could always be found reading a good book. As a devout Irish Catholic, her faith and her family were first and foremost in her life. She cherished every moment she spent with her family who adored "Auntie Barbara", the Matriarch of the Glynn Family. She will be missed and we know she will celebrate her 94th birthday in heaven with those who have gone before her.
