Volunteer Spotlight - Barbara Coughlan

Gibbie Nauman • Mar 07, 2023


When Barbara was ready to retire after a long career as an Interior Designer, she knew she would not be able to stay idle for long. A quick search on the internet connected her to CROS and our Delray Beach Food Pantry. In January, after 11 years and at the age of 95 years old, she let us know that it was time for her to stop volunteering with us. Barbara helped keep the pantry in what she called “shippy-shape” taking pride in leaving the pantry neatly organized for the next shift. She even went so far as to study the stockers at grocery stores to see how they stocked their shelves. Her warm hugs and words of wisdom made every day a little better too. Thank you, Barbara, for being an amazing volunteer. You will be greatly missed.
