Barbara Mosher Nemura

Barbara Mosher Nemura passed away at the age of 87 on April 17, 2025, in Roanoke, Virginia after a long bout with a heart condition. She was born in Cleveland to her mother Lilian Howard Mosher and father James Edward Mosher and is survived by her brother James Howard Mosher of Cleveland, Ohio. She was a devoted wife of her surviving husband, Ronald Eddie Nemura of Roanoke, Virginia, with whom she was married for 66 years. They have 2 daughters; Elizabeth James (Mark) of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Adrienne Nemura (Frank Greenland) of Valley City, Ohio. She also has one granddaughter, Mackenzie Bultman, and one grandson, Calvin Bultman.

Barbara was a strong person and was passionate in the things she tackled. She was dedicated to her altar guild at Christ Episcopal Church for which she served for over 25 years. She also worked there as a volunteer with people living with mental health issues who cherished her dearly for her support. Another of her ministries was sewing and making smocked dresses for any little girl she knew as well as making dresses for the stillborn children at Carilion Hospital. She was blessed with a dry sense of humor which she used to tell stories or jokes to her many friends. She enjoyed traveling to dude ranches, art museums, national parks, ski resorts, or just taking a stroll on the beach, all of these at her own pace.

There will be a memorial service at Christ Episcopal Church at 1101 Franklin Road, SW in Roanoke, Virginia on June 14, 2025 at 2:00 PM, followed by interment in the columbarium and refreshments. Memorials can be given to Christ Episcopal Church.
