Barbara Stack-Cuadra

Barbara died peacefully in her Daly City home on Tuesday, August 23rd. She was the only child of William and Vera Hargrove of San Francisco. Barbara attended St. Cecilia Grammar School and graduated from Notre Dame High School.

She is survived by her loving husband of 35 years, Fernando “Tony” Cuadra and her three children; John Joseph Stack (Dolores, deceased), William Clinton Stack, and Laurie Ann Clark (partner Jon Cosner) and her previous son-in-law, Steve Clark. She also leaves behind Tony’s children; Arlene, Sharon and Debbie Cuadra (partner Chris McHale), Arlene’s children Raquel and Adam, and Tony’s sister, Delia (Dennis) Childs. She relished her most important role of grandmother to Sean (Christina) Stack, Bobby (Cynthia) Stack, Ryan Stack and James Clark (partner Xochitl) and Natalie Clark, and was great-grandma to Logan, Kamryn, Kayden and Liam Stack, all of whom called her Grandma Barbie.

She retired as a Pension Analyst from the San Francisco-based Pacific Coast Shipyard Trust Fund and committed most of her free time to the care of her son Billy, who has been a resident of Laguna Honda Hospital in San Francisco for the last 44 years, after he was injured in a motorcycle accident. She was grateful to all of the staff at Laguna Honda who provided excellent care to Billy.

She cherished her family more than anything and loved her dogs, Charlie, Sammy and Lola. She will never be forgotten and will always live on in our hearts. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated Friday September 9th at 10:00am at Our Lady of Mercy, 1 Elmwood Drive in Daly City. She will be laid to rest at Holy Cross Cemetery in Colma.
