OCEAN RIDGE — Barbara S. Traylor, longtime resident of Boynton Beach and Ocean Ridge, died peacefully at her home in Ocean Ridge on Jan. 21. She was 88.
Mrs. Traylor was an independent woman, a professional who made many contributions to the Boynton Beach community. She was very proud to be the founding partner of the accounting firm of Traylor and Gratton and one of the founders of the Boynton Beach Children’s Museum.
Barbara was married to Philip B. “Flip” Traylor, both native Floridians. Mr. Traylor died in 2016.
In 60-plus years together, they had many adventures while raising their family and taking trips to the Florida Keys and Bahamas. Many tours and cruises taken with friends provided so many great memories. She was a voracious reader and loved her Westies and a good margarita.
Mrs. Traylor is survived by her son, Gregory B. Traylor, daughter, Pamela T. Anwyll (Brad), granddaughter Ashton E. Krauss, great-grandson Landon, niece Vanessa Hurst (Randy), nephews Randy Spinks and Darrell Spinks (Roselyn), and many great-nieces and great-nephews.
The family will be forever grateful for the care provided by Lee Ann Cummins, Joan Watson, Visiting Angels and Trustbridge.
A celebration of Mrs. Traylor’s life will be held at a later date. Donations may be sent in her memory to the Schoolhouse Children’s Museum & Learning Center, 129 E. Ocean Ave., Boynton Beach, FL 33435-4536, or Trustbridge Hospice Foundation, 5300 East Ave., West Palm Beach, FL 33407.
