COUDERSPORT, Pa.—In loving memory of Barbara J. (McCloud) Neefe, who was born in Port Allegany on June 24, 1950, to Carl D. and Sarah E. Houpt McCloud. She was a remarkable soul who graced this world until to her final moments on October 18, 2023. Barb’s life was a beautiful tapestry of love, laughter, and the joy she spread among those lucky enough to know her.

On December 26,1970, she married the hunk next door, Richard C. Neefe III, her devoted husband of nearly 53 years. She was a lifelong Coudersport resident, where she raised her family and ran her business.  

Barb was a devoted mother to her three children, Amber, Kristin, and Richard. Her love for them knew no bounds, and she took immense pride in watching them grow and succeed. She was not just a mother; she was their biggest cheerleader, confidante, and a source of unwavering support.  Some of her favorite Mimom moments were picking up seashells, “butts in the air”, with Carson and Madison along the beach.  

For over 30 years, Barb was the proud owner of a beloved beauty shoppe, where she touched the lives of countless clients, not just with her scissors, but with her kindness and compassion.
