Found eternal peace on March 20, 2026 at the age of 98.  Beloved mother of Carl (Lynette), Phil (Mary), Rosemarie (Bryan) Hackbarth and the late Paul Ciardo.  Cherished grandma of 8 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.  Also survived by nieces, nephews, cousins and good friends.  Santa was preceded in death by her loving and devoted husband Sarro J.
