Passed away on Sunday, May 21, 2023. She was 67 years old. She died unexpectedly, but quietly in her sleep.
Barb was preceded in death by her parents, Shirley and Harvey Goppelt. She is survived by her husband William Sarette (71) and her brother David (65). Barb and Bill were married for 44 years. It was the general consensus amongst the family members that Bill was far too good for Barb and she had better not screw that up.
Barb was employed as an accountant at various organizations throughout her working years and somewhat recently retired. Barb was a creative person with a lifetime love of working with various crafts including cross stitch and knitting. Name a craft and she probably had tried it at least once.
Barb was a voracious reader and with Bill traveled to various towns seeking out old book stores. They went on several trips around Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Barb was raised in a family that played cards every Sunday with the grandparents. Fortunately, Bill was an avid card player as well and they continued the tradition with Barb’s parents for many years.
No funeral or memorial service will be held. Barb will be missed.
