Remembering Barbara Grostick By: Rana Goodman & Dan Roberts Our Vegas Voice Executive Director (and Dan’s Bronx Buddy) Bill Caserta’s “domestic partner” Barbara Grostick passed away last month. She is survived by her two sisters Becky and Beth, daughter Jennifer and grandchildren Lyndon, Lily and Laura. And that does not include her Vegas Voice family who have no words to describe our grief and sadness. Our deepest symphony and condolences to Bill. We have the obituary from Barbara’s sisters setting forth what a remarkable life Barbara had. Her service to others was legendary, including her love and dedication to her Community Lutheran Church. Barbara exemplified all that was good in a person. We can list her numerous accomplishments but these are simply “facts.” And in her passing, it’s not the awards that count, but how she made everyone smile and feel that really matters. Bill’s daughters Laura and Lynn in a few sentences correctly spelled out how truly special Barabra was: You brought so much joy and happiness to our dad and families throughout the years. Thank you for making our kids feel so very special and loved. People like you deserve the largest wings and the brightest halos. And our friend Bruce Ewing was able to perfectly express what everyone who knew Barabara felt: One of the sweetest, kindest people I’ve ever known has moved on to eternal life today. Barbara was simply the best. Dan and I always had the pleasure and absolute joy of having Barbara as part of our lives. From vacation trips to simply going out with Bill and Barbara for lunch or dinner, we always smiled and laughed. We would constantly credit Barbara for having the remarkable skill and patience for putting up with Bill on a daily basis. And while we would laugh as she rolled her eyes as she hilariously replied with “if only you knew” responses, there was never any doubt of her love for Bill - and that Bill felt the same way towards her. Her friends, her extended family (including her Vegas Voice family), her now broken-hearted canine, Buster and everyone who knew or she touched in so many ways will always treasure and love her. We don’t know how one can measure a person’s value and existence on this earth. We guess if you are loved, cared for, and be forever missed when you are no longer around; you’ve had a worthwhile and exceptional life. By these standards, Barbara Grostick was a success beyond her wildest dreams. May she rest in peace. A Celebration of Life will be on Saturday, November 18 th at <strong>11</strong> am at Community Lutheran Church located at 3720 E. Tropicana Avenue, Las Vegas 89121. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a gift to the Community Lutheran Church https://www.communitylv.org where Barbara was a member for over 30 years. 6 November 2023
