Barbara Jean Miller Suhr was born on January 20, 1933, in Seward, Nebraska, to Clement and Margaret (Fischer) Miller. She passed away on September 10, 2026. Barbara was baptized at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in Seward, where she remained a lifelong member. She graduated from Seward High School in 1951 and married Don Suhr on November 17 of that same year.

She is survived by her children Deborah Zavitka, Burbank, California; Judy Cudaback, Exeter; Donna Zigler, Lincoln; Mark Suhr and Diane Lichty (Rob Ringler), Seward; and brother Donald E. Miller, Abilene, Texas.
Her grandchildren include Renee Zavitka (Warren Curry), Burbank, California; Brandon Cudaback, York; Chad (Courtney) Cudaback, Lincoln; Steven Zigler, Hastings; Lori Lynn (Cenin) Sorto, Lincoln; Mallory (Tom) Van Haute, Gretna; Thomas (Taylor) Suhr, Liz (Seth) Morenzoni, Tyler Lichty, Brittany (Trevor) Wambold, and Josh Ringler, Seward; Thomas Ringler, Gretna; and Abbey Ringler, Omaha.
