Barbara Sbrocco

BARBARA ANNE SBROCCO (nee Warren) age 69, beloved wife for 21 years of John; loving mother of Gabriella (nee Pitrone) DiRenzo (husband Anthony) and Dana Zagorski (husband Mike); devoted grandmother of Remi and Rocco DiRenzo, Emma and Charlie Zagorski; beloved daughter of the late Joseph and Virginia (nee Algeri) Warren; cherished niece of Yolanda Geraci (husband Nicholas, deceased); dearest sister of Joanne Ulepic (husband Tom) and the late Cynthia Cuccarese (husband Terry, deceased); dear aunt, great-aunt, sister-in-law, second mom and friend to many.

Barbara was born in Cleveland on January 30, 1952 – the middle of three daughters.  She died peacefully at home surrounded by her family very early on September 22, 2021 – or very late on September 21 …. numerology was something special to her.  Barbara and her husband John lived in Willoughby Hills for the past 14 years, previously residing in South Euclid.  She was a graduate of Mayfield High School, Class of 1970.

Barbara spent most of her career as a hair stylist. Spending time with her family and grandkids gave her the most enjoyment in life.  She cherished family vacations together, especially to Aruba.  Barbara’s favorite hobby was shopping, particularly online.  She even received a package to the home the day after her passing.  She also had a special place in her heart for all animals and their welfare.  Decorating was something she enjoyed doing in her spare time.  Her family remembers her as outgoing, always speaking directly what was on her mind, and also very giving.  She will be missed by all who loved her and spent memorable times with her.
