WAYNE – Barbara M. Kibbe, 94, of Ridge Road passed away peacefully Friday (Jan. 27, 2023), with family by her side, at Fred & Harriet Taylor Health Center.

 A graveside service and interment, at Pleasant Valley Cemetery, will be held on Saturday June 3, 2023 at 1PM for both Barb and George, with a celebration at the Hammondsport Fire Department immediately following.
