Barbara Miro Obituary
Barbara Miro, age 85, devoted wife of the late Joseph Miro, formerly of Fairfield, passed away peacefully in her Trumbull home on March 26, 2021. Born in Norwalk on October 1, 1935 to Morris and Fannie Lindwall, Barbara was one of 9 children, all of whom predeceased her.
She will be lovingly remembered by her family including her children, Joseph C Miro, Barbara E Miro , Mary L Klein (Roy); her cherished grandchildren, Joseph Miro, Julianna Miro, Christopher Klein, Joseph Klein (Jessica), Kaitlyn Klein, Sara Klein; her great grandchildren, Brendan Klein and Harrison Klein (everyone lives in CT except Christopher who lives in South Carolina).
Alongside her husband Joe, they ran Miro Farms for over 50 years. In that time, they served numerous customers, many of whom would become longtime friends. She was a dedicated parishioner and Eucharistic Minister at Holy Family Church before moving to Monroe 12 years ago.
She enjoyed gardening, jigsaw puzzles and listening to country music. She was all about family and lived for her 6 grandchildren and felt especially blessed with two great-grandsons who were the light of her life.
Friends are invited to join her family for a Mass of Christian Burial on Monday at 1 PM in Holy Family Church, Fairfield. Her interment will follow in Lawncroft Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the Miro family requests donations in her memory to St Jude Children's Research Hospital or Swim Across the Sound. For travel directions, or to sign her guest register, please visit www.LeskoPolkeFuneralHome.com

Dear Barbara and Mary - my heart is breaking from the loss of Aunt Barbara. I am thankful for the memories I have of her and happy I spoke with her recently. Roy was right, Aunt Barbara’s passing is the end of an era, what a family reunion is going on in heaven now! Guess all of us cousins are now the oldest generation. I wish I was there for her service but please know I will be thinking of you; sending hugs and prayers - Carol

My condolences to all the Miro family. Barbara will be missed dearly by many.
I've been a long time friend of Barbara's daughter Barb.
For the past few years Barb and her Mom would make the trip to Kennebunk,Me to visit with me. I will always remember the great times and laughs we had together. Barbara had the best sense of humor.
I will always cherish those memories and will miss her dearly.
Rest In Peace my friend Love, Carolyn Spear

Dear Barb and Family,
I’m so very sorry to read of your mom’s passing. She was always so nice to me when I stopped in the farm store years ago...especially if I had my boys with me. She is now with her beloved Joe and I know they are watching over all of you. Cherish your memories.

Mom, there is no way that I can thank-you for giving me a lifetime of nurturing and happiness filled with incredible memories. After daddy passed I would talk to him and tell him that he couldn't have you yet, that we still needed you. As a family, I know we did the very best that mere mortals could do. We knew it would be selfish if we asked God for you to linger awhile longer in this world with us. I will miss you as my "co-pilot" on our weekends in Maine. My friends always enjoyed your company and the talks they shared with you. By your example you taught me to "slow down" and as I grew older, to savor the moment and enjoy life as it happens. I know that you're still with us but in a different way. I know that you'll always be there to listen to us and guide us. I cannot think of anyone more important in my life than you. You are and always will be very loved and missed. Your daughter, Barbara

To the family of Barbara Miro,
She was one special person. Barbara could always make you smile. From her years at the Black Rock Turnpike market, to her service to Holy Family, she left her mark. May she rest in peace for a special life well-lived.
