Barbara "Babs" Borghi

Barbara “Babs” Borghi, age 72, of Levittown, PA, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, January 8, 2025. Born on June 3, 1952, she was the beloved daughter of the late Howard F. and Mary Ellen Prater and was predeceased by her two sisters, Marianne Forko and Marcia Prater.

Babs leaves behind a loving family, including her three children: Daniel Distler, Aimee Distler (Dan), and Michael Tanner (Kara). She also cherished her three granddaughters, Alana, Kayla, and Ellie Jean, along with her furry companions, Champ and grand pup Kody. She will be fondly remembered by her nieces and nephews: Donna Boltersdorf (Karl), Lisa Forko, John Forko (Krystina), and Joe Forko (Joanne), as well as many cousins and great nieces and nephews who held her in high regard as the one and only Aunt “Babs.”

Babs devoted much of her life to her community, spending her early years in Bucks County before moving to Philadelphia. There, she discovered a second family in the fellowship of N. A., where she was instrumental in sponsoring numerous women, forming lifelong friendships, and earning great respect for her unwavering dedication to sobriety. Upon returning to Levittown, she continued her impact in the community by working at the Libertae Women and Children Rehabilitation Center and operating her own cleaning business, “Fresh As A Daisy.”

Family and friends are invited to gather on Saturday, February 1, 2025, at St. Ephrem Church, located at 5400 Hulmeville Road, Bensalem, PA 19020, from 9:30 to 11:00 am, followed by a mass at 11:00 am. Interment will take place at Resurrection Cemetery. Arrangements are under the care and direction of Galzerano Funeral Home.

Babs's spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
