Harry LaBarr Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Best Funeral Services Peoria on Oct. 29, 2025.
Harry Dana LaBarr, 88, of Sun City, Arizona, was welcomed into the arms of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on October 26, 2025, hearing the words, "Well done, good and faithful servant." A devoted follower of Christ, Dana lived a life anchored in faith, love, and a deep appreciation for God's creation, leaving a legacy that will forever inspire his family and community.
Born on January 28,1937, Dana served his country with honor as an Air Force veteran, demonstrating courage and commitment. Dana greatly loved his two sons, Tommy LaBarr and Michael LaBarr, and his daughter, Bobi Bockmiller, whom he raised with his wife Rita, who has been in the arms of Jesus since 2003. His heart overflowed with joy for his many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and one cherished great-great-grandchild, for whom he prayed faithfully and loved deeply.
Dana found great joy in God's creation, cherishing moments spent taking his family fishing and camping. He radiated warmth, kindness, and a steadfast trust in Jesus that touched all who knew him. His faith was a beacon, guiding others toward the promise of salvation and the reality of heaven as he led family members to salvation and modeled true worship to Jesus as he entered into the presence of his Savior.
The promise of heaven is real, and Harry Dana LaBarr now rejoices in the eternal presence of Jesus. May his memory be a blessing, and may we all be inspired to walk faithfully with the Lord as he did.
