A life so very well lived & shared with so many. She was always generous of spirit & joy. I remember in the 70’s the family nicknamed her, Venus, after the Roman Goddess of Love, Beauty, & yes, Fertility. Happy to have known her & happy to think of her reunited with Jim, her family, & her many friends that I’m sure are welcoming her to Heaven. Peace & loving memories to all of the McCunes as you celebrate such a wonderful mother / a wonderful woman.

My condolences to all the family. Barbara was my “new” friend and scrabble partner. She enjoyed it as much as I did. God called her back to be with him. May she rest in his peace. I will miss her a lot so will the residents at Serra Grace Cottage. Love Bernadette Anile.
Barb was a wonderful life long friend to my mom, Jean Dorsch. I have many memories of mom picking her up to go to Elbys for lunch or Treasue Island in Steubenville where they needed extra hands to push the grocery carts as between the two of them there were 15 kids to feed!! I remember her telling me that my four sons would become the men in my life. She was so proud of her sons. My thoughts and prayers are with the McCune family. She was one special lady!
Sympathy and prayers for the entire McCune family. So glad to see her and get a chance to talk to her recently. What a beautiful lady!
McCune Cousins: So sorry to hear of the loss of your dear sweet Mom. Aunt Barb was such a kind and strong woman. I remember visiting your house when we were kids, and she always had a smile on her face as she took great care of everyone. The last of the Weinman girls left a legacy of love! Brent and I extend our condolences and prayers to all of you and your families.
Our personal sympathy to each of you upon the passing of your loved one, a beautiful lady in every sense of the word. She was so kind and friendly to our mother during her stay at Grace Cottage, and even became our mother’s hairdresser! She is resting in peace. Jim and Marie Fazalare
I had a heavy heart when I learned of Barbs passing. So many wonderful memories. I am so thankful I got to see her at the cottage when visiting with my dad these last couple years. We would always have lots of laughs. I loved her like a mom. ❤️❤️❤️ JoAnn Low
Sincere sympathy 🙏❤️
Sorry for your loss. I was in the church choir with Barb several years ago. You will all be in my prayers.
To the McCune Family, What a wonderful life for a wonderful woman. Your mom and dad were just two fantastic people. May God bless all of you and lighten your hearts with her memory. Jim and Anne Paul
Barb & Jim were such great friends of ours. I loved them both. We all played a lot of golf together. One thing that I will never forget was Jim’s Cantaloupe Pie. God Bless the Family at this time. Rest in Peace Barb. Patty Biondillo
To all of the McCune clan, I am so very sorry to learn of the passing of your mom (grandmother/great-grandmother). She was a true model of motherhood and the Catholic faith, especially in our St. Joe’s parish and in our neighborhood–particularly within our small ‘community’ on Mellon Street! I will forever remember her as a kind, friendly, warm and patient woman…even after raising 7 sons!!! May God bless her forever! I am sure she is smiling down on us all from Heaven right now and praying for all of us to one day join her again! My prayers go out to you all at this time of great loss. May she rest in peace and joy! Rob Mancuso
My condolences to the entire McCune family.
I only met Barb when I moved toGarden Grove in 2014. We developed a quick friendship and enjoyed a few years before she returned to .w. .va, She was such an easy person to be around. We shared the same faith, so we often attended mass together. I have missed her alot since she left. I know her reliance on her faith will take her to her heavenly place.My sincere condolences to all the family. Sincerely, Vera Novak
So sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. May your memories of her bring a smile to your face. Much love to all. Patti & Howard Craighead
To the McCune family: I’m sure all of you know what a wonderful mother you were blessed to have. I want you to know that not only was she loved by you but also by all who came in contact with her. She reminded me so much of my own mom, always a smile on her face and always made the time to talk to me wherever we met. She was proud of her family and filled me in on what everyone was doing. I missed her smiling face when she was no longer able to drive around. May her memory be eternal and may God hold all of you close to His heart during this difficult time. Love & prayers , Bob & Peggy
Beautiful beautiful lady, inside and out. Our thoughts, love and prayers go out to you all.
Dear Jim, brothers,sisters-in-law and grandchildren; I am truly sorry to hear of your beautiful mother’s passing. Growing up in the neighborhood, I remember that your mom always had a smile on her face. Of course, when you have seven boys to raise, smiling might be the only way to get through the day! But your parents must of done something right because they left one heck of a legacy 😊Enjoy the happy memories and God bless all the McCunes! Sincerely, Cathy(Mueller)Arango
