Barbara J. Swank-Brickman "Babs"

February 26, 1964 - December 5, 2021

On December 5th, 2021, at 3:28 a.m. Barbara "Babs" Brickman passed away unexpectedly after a battle just shy of 3 months. Babs was a warrior in every sense, she was a bad ass, she was the most compassionate woman who never once cared about herself, but everyone around her. Babs was the truest definition of selfless. She had such vast knowledge of any and all things, she was boisterous, wise, free-spirited, funny, confident, brave, witty, and she loved to enjoy all the ordinary yet extraordinary moments of life. That was the good stuff to her. The sound of the rain, sunshine on a summer day, the magical feeling of snow and the wonder of Christmas. Babs was a lover of all things music, and even as she battled in the hospital, music was always playing, and she danced around. She was the ultimate role model, and woman. Babs was the loving wife of Ronald Brickman. She was an extraordinary mother to her son, Anthony (Brittney) Swank and to her daughter, Kyrieeleison Brickman. Babs was also known as "Baba" to the greatest joys of her life, her grandchildren Tristan, and Chesney Swank. Though, our hearts will never be full again, Baba will always be the Northern Star that will be the compass that guides us until we meet again." Barbara's family will receive friends to celebrate her life from 2-6 p.m. on Sunday December 12, viewing at Monreal Funeral home in Eastlake. Monday December 13, Funeral mass at St. John Vianney in Mentor at Noon followed by a burial at Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland immediately following the Mass.
