It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Barbara LaPointe on October 14, 2024 at the age of 77. Barbara was born in Chicago, IL to Frank A. LaPointe and Agnes M. LaPointe (nee Marshall) on July 18, 1947. Preceded in death by her parents and sister Connie Rende, survived by siblings Patricia Crary, Kathleen Frazier and Martin LaPointe. Barbara's life, though limited, was full of love and grace. Her earthly struggles have ended and surely she rests with the angels.
