Warren – Barbara Gabele, 75, of Warren, passed away Wednesday morning, August 25, 2021 at CHC in Mineral Ridge.

Barb was born in December 1945 in Rome, OH, the daughter of Melvin and Marian Augustin.

Barb graduated from Grand Valley High School in Orwell and went on to marry the late, John Gabele, of Warren in 1977.
