Barbara J (Wolitarsky) Heringer

Barbara Heringer, 61, Beulah, went home to be with her Savior Jesus on March 3, 2019 surrounded by her family at home. Services will be held at 10:00 AM CST on Saturday, March 9 at Immanuel Baptist Church, Beulah, with Pastor Bob Klein officiating. Burial will be at a later date.

Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 PM on Friday, March 8 at Immanuel Baptist Church.

Barbara was born to Vernon “Bud” and Grace (Barbie) Wolitarsky, the youngest of four children. She graduated from Turtle Lake High School and earned her teaching degree from Minot State University in Special Education and taught for three years. She married her best friend and love of her life, Lester Heringer, on December 17, 1978. They started their lumber business and raised their four children in Beulah, where she was an active member of Immanuel Baptist Church. She served as youth leader, AWANA volunteer, on the worship team, and was involved with various Bible studies. She was a substitute teacher in the Beulah school system for many years. Barb’s greatest joy in life was being with her family. Her smile and laugh were contagious. She enjoyed music, sending encouraging cards, doing crossword puzzles, baking, and correcting grammar. The joy of the LORD was her strength in her 23-year battle with cancer, which she fought with dignity, grace, courage and trust.

Barbara is survived by her husband, Lester; three daughters and sons-in-law, Stacia and Seth Michael, Prince Albert, SK, Holly and Joel Molascon, Madison, SD, Lexi and Brent Wimmer, Denver, CO; one son and daughter-in-law, Hunter and Nikki Heringer, Minneapolis, MN; seven grandchildren, Nevalynn Chamakese, Sharlotte Thomas, and Baron Michael, Abraham, Joanna, and Maris Molascon, and Peyton Wimmer; and her siblings Karen (Randy) Forsberg, Phoenix, AZ, LeAnn (Larry) Elmer, Milan, MI, and Mark (Berinda) Wolitarsky, Everett, WA. 

She was preceded in death by her parents and an infant granddaughter, Aurora Michael.
