Pamela Sue LaBarre

Pamela (Gallant) LaBarre, 66, of West Suffield, CT, passed away peacefully on May 07, 2022 in Madeira Beach, FL beside her beloved husband, Richard R. LaBarre. She was born in Hartford, CT to Nancy and Roy Gallant on May 05, 1956.

She graduated from Suffield High School and Bay Path Junior College. Pam and Rick met as teenagers at Babbs Roller-skating Rink in West Suffield, CT, where Pam was a successful competitor. They had an inseparable bond and married on June 04, 1977.

A devoted wife, mother and friend, Pam always stayed loving, caring, youthful, thoughtful and selfless. She loved going to concerts, Kenny Chesney, The Eagles, and Rick Springfield. She also enjoyed singing in the car with her family for weekend hockey trips to Canada. Pam loved reading on the boat during a "spin" around the Lake and enjoying dinners with "The Lake Crew" on Lake Congamond where she and her husband built their dream home together. In addition to managing the chaos of their four kids busy schedules, Pam also worked as the Office Manager for Richard R. LaBarre Concrete Work Inc. since it was established.

Above all, Pam always put her family first. Pamela is survived by her husband Richard LaBarre and their four kids; Aimee LaBarre, Aaron LaBarre and his wife Nicole, Adam LaBarre, Ashley LaBarre and her husband Josh. Pam has been noted as the best Nana ever to three handsome Grandsons to whom she showed unconditional love and the sweetest puppy that stayed by her side, Nica. She will be missed dearly by her two sisters, Nancy L. Doleva of New Smyrna Beach, FL, Lisa G. Cicitto of West Suffield and her brother John W. Gallant of Canton, CT, as well as all the family and friends who Rick and Pam shared. She loves you and we love you all. Arrangements are private.
