Salli-Ann Barbaro, age 54, passed away peacefully January 12, 2026 surrounded by her loving family.
Salli-Ann is survived by her parents Kenneth and Ann (Nee Bridge) Green and her beloved daughter, Abigail “Abby” W. Barbaro.
Salli-Ann devoted her life to her family, friends, and love of teaching. Her life will always be defined by her fierce love for her family, and her determination, resilience, and will to live that were like no other.
Known as a warrior by some, her courage was truly inspiring. She was a dedicated first-grade teacher at Holy Child School, Rosemont, and during her time there, she touched the lives of many families and students. Her legacy will forever remain in the hearts of those whom she cared for deeply.
Salli-Ann was a mother, daughter, and friend to many. Her love of life and ability to put others first truly spoke to the person she was.
Over the course of her life, Salli-Ann enjoyed many pastimes. Throughout her childhood, she spent many days with friends at the stable riding, and later at the rink doing ice skating. Nature also played an important role in Salli-Ann’s life. As a dog and horse mom for much of her life, she enjoyed many scenic walks and moments in the beauty of the world around her.
Salli-Ann inspired all with her strength, love, selflessness, and compassion. She will forever be missed by all those who knew and loved her, but her memory will continue in her absence as she rests in peace and comfort.
