Barbara Rousch

January 3, 1965 — August 14, 2025

Barbara "Barbalyn" Rousch, a cherished soul whose life journey began in the vibrant city of New York, has been called to her eternal home in Lewisburg, Tennessee, after a courageous battle with ALS. A proud veteran of the U.S. Navy, Barbalyn's dedication to her country was mirrored in her devotion to her faith, her family, and her community.

Barbalyn's early years were marked by her unwavering commitment to education, having not only completed high school but also excelled at the Navy Communication School. Her service in the Navy was not just a testament to her patriotism but also a foundation for the discipline and strength she carried throughout her life. Barbalyn's military service was a significant chapter that she often reflected upon with great pride and a sense of accomplishment.

Faith played a pivotal role in Barbalyn's life. Her Christian beliefs were the compass that guided her through life's trials and triumphs. She lived her faith through acts of kindness, her selfless spirit, and her boundless capacity to love. Barbalyn's laughter was a beacon of joy that could light up any room, and her sense of humor was a gift that she freely shared with all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

A woman of many passions, Barbalyn reveled in the joy of discovery and adventure. She had an insatiable love for vacation antiques, cruising, and traveling, each new find or destination bringing her immeasurable delight. Her eyes would sparkle with the excitement of new experiences, and her stories of adventure would captivate and inspire those around her.

Described by those who knew her best as loving, selfless, and funny, Barbalyn's legacy is one of compassion and laughter. She was a beacon of light in the lives of many, a woman whose generosity knew no bounds and whose spirit could not be dampened by life's adversities.

As we reflect on Barbalyn's life, we are reminded of the words of the esteemed Helen Keller: "What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us." Barbalyn's love and laughter have become an indelible part of our lives, her memory a cherished treasure that we will hold dear forever.

In her passing, we are reminded that life is a precious gift to be cherished and that each day is an opportunity to make a positive impact on the world. Barbalyn's life was a testament to the power of living with purpose and the profound impact one person can have on the lives of many. Her spirit will continue to guide and inspire us, and her love will always be a comforting presence in our hearts. Rest in peace, dear Barbalyn, until we meet again.

Your loving husband and best friend forever ❤️
