Barbara Ramona Seifert

Barbara Ramona Seifert was born in Chino, California on July 18th, 1945. As one of 8 children born to Lucy and Camilo Vasquez, she knew about love, commitment and sacrifice. After graduating from Chino High School in 1963, she continued her education at Mt. San Antonio College. Her studies prepared her for a lengthy career, starting with Prudential and culminating in a 25 year position as legal secretary with San Diego’s City Attorney Department, from which Barbara retired in 2004. She was a very successful consultant for Mary Kay Cosmetics, where her qualities of strength and independence paid off.

Family was of the utmost importance to Barbara, as evidenced by the fact that she helped to raise 6 children in her lifetime including a niece and nephew. She made every effort to provide the best for her daughter Yvette and later for her grandchildren, Brandy and Jonathan. Her loving care, her positive outlook and upbeat attitude were a blessing to her whole family.

Barbara loved Point Loma/OB and was active in her community, investing her time and talents in the Ocean Beach Town Council. She loved the friendships built while attending monthly senior luncheons and First Friday Mass. She also enjoyed going to community bible study at the Red Brick Church. She had a strong foundation in the Catholic faith which she passed on to her family and remained a member of the Altar and Rosary Society for many years at her local parish, Sacred Heart Church of OB.

Faith and family were the primary focus of Barbara’s earthly journey. Rest assured in the knowledge that she is now rejoicing with her family in heaven. May she rest in peace.

Fun fact: At Chino High School, Barbara lettered in basketball. She will really enjoy listening to the 9 choirs of angels in heaven, as she was a soprano herself!
