Born Andriena Attanasio in Manhattan, she moved to Brooklyn as a young woman and moved to her daughter's home in New Dorp Beach last year.
A homemaker, Mrs. Barbara enjoyed cooking Italian dishes. She also liked to travel to Atlantic City and go shopping.
"She was a very giving, generous good person," said her daughter, Carol Barbara, describing how her mother would just pick up items for people when she was out shopping. "She always thought about others."

Her husband of thirty-five years, Louis, died in 1994. Her son, Stephen, also died in 1994.
In addition to her daughter, Carol, surviving are her daughter, Victoria Campisi; three grandchildren; and one great-grandson.
