Our Family is the greatest thing in life. I have been blessed to have the greatest brother-in-law for 46 years. There’s not enough words I can put in this paragraph to tell you how blessed I have been for all these years.
RIP Ciro. We will meet again.

Ciro was a witty and friendly man who we got the pleasure of meeting as neighbors. Over the years we knew him, he was always smiling and pleasant. May he rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

To the LaBarbera Family,

Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

Your patriarch will always be among us, for an African proverb says, “As long as someone speaks your name, you’re never truly gone.” So Ciro, whether you like it or not, you will always be our neighbor at Stonegate Apartments.

With Sympathy,
Your neighbor, Christl, and your lease, favorite canine, Mystic

Jo Ann
Ciro loved his family more then life itself, he lived a long happy life with you and his kids. Jo Ann no one ever said life was fair but God saw that he was tired and called him home. May God keep you safe and at peace
