Obituary of Lucia Barahona-Farro
Lucia Barahona-Farro, age 102, of Prattsburgh, NY, passed away on Thursday, August 10, 2023 at Crest Manor Living Center, Fairport, NY.
Lucia was born on September 10, 1920 in Chepen, Peru, the daughter of the late, José and Emilia (Farro) Barahona. Before moving to the US, she operated a hair salon for many years in Lima, Peru. She worked at Bennett Farms in Bloomfield before retiring to Prattsburgh, NY, where she attended St Patrick Church and cared for her chickens and many flowers.
