Barbara Kunkle passed away peacefully on December 9, 2024 while surrounded by family after a battle with lung disease that spanned more than a decade. She was 75 years old.
A beautiful soul who was welcomed into the arms of Jesus, she was preceded in death by her oldest son and is survived by her mother, 3 sons, 6 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren.
Barbara was an avid motorsports enthusiast, a champion drag boat racer, and the inaugural member of the Arizona Drag Boat Association’s Hall of Fame. She lived life to the fullest with every fiber of her being.
Her unmistakable zest for life will be missed by many and will never be forgotten. May her soul eternally race in peace.
Barbara did not desire for services to be held.
Donations may be made in Barbara’s honor to Racers for Christ ( https://teamrfc.org ) or Racers Emergency Support Program ( http://www.racersesp.org ).
