Barbara Brubaker Morris

Barbara Brubaker Morris, born on November 21, 1940, in Washington, DC, entered eternal rest on November 7, 2026, at Morningside House Assisted Living, surrounded by the warmth and love of her family. Her passing was peaceful, marking the end of a life with love, grace, and service to others.

Barbara was the cherished daughter of Charles and Winifred Brubaker. She graduated from Anacostia High School, where she laid the foundations for a life of dedication and commitment. On December 12, 1959, she married the love of her life, Charles Morris, with whom she shared 45 blissful years of marriage until his passing. Together, they built a beautiful family and life filled with love and laughter.

Barbara's career was one of service and compassion. She dedicated over 30 years to the Prince George's County Public Schools as a Special Needs School Bus Driver, where her kindness and patience touched the lives of countless children and families.

Her faith was a cornerstone of her life. Barbara was a lifelong member of the Forestville United Methodist Church, where she sang in the choir, served on the Altar Guild, and was active in women's circles and adult Sunday School. Her voice and spirit enriched the worship and community life of her church.

Barbara's commitment to service extended beyond her church. She was a dedicated member of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Forestville Volunteer Fire Department, serving as the Sunshine Committee Chairperson and participating in the yearly Fireman's convention in Ocean City.

A woman of diverse interests, Barbara had a deep love for music and theater. She was a collector at heart, with a particular fondness for German Beer Steins, each piece holding a story and a memory.

Barbara is survived by her loving children, Terri, Tammi, and Chuck (Donna), and her beloved grandchildren, Bryan (Meghan) Hunt, Christopher (Jessica) Hunt, Robert (Amanda) Hunt, and Mark Hunt. She was the proud great-grandmother to five precious great-grandchildren. Her sister, Sharon (Jim) Herzog, and many nieces and nephews will also cherish her memory.

She was predeceased by her husband, Charles Morris, her parents, Charles and Winifred Brubaker, and her baby sibling, Baby Brubaker.

A visitation and service to celebrate Barbara life will be held from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, November 17th at Lee Funeral Home in Clinton, MD. Her family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful caregivers at Morningside House of St. Charles and Chesapeake Hospice of Charles County for their compassionate care and support.
