Lazaro Ibarra

"Celebrating the life of a man who brought joy to everyone around him. He had a passion for playing guitar, singing, dancing, and was always up for a good game of softball. His love for the Houston Astros and BBQ grilling was only matched by his fondness for trips to Las Vegas and Coushatta, where he made many cherished memories with his wife Manuela (Mela) Ybarra.

For 30 years, he served as a teller at Pan American Bank, Texas Commerce Bank, and Chase Bank, always going above and beyond for his customers. He will forever be remembered for his infectious sense of humor, always able to put a smile on your face.

Rest in peace, your laughter and love will never be forgotten."
