Barbara Ann Briceno

June 26, 1961 – July 24, 2026

Barbara Ann Briceno, 65, peacefully entered the presence of her Lord and Savior on Friday, July 24, 2026, after a courageous battle with cancer.

Barbara will be remembered for her unwavering faith in God, her generous spirit, and her compassionate heart. She was bold, feisty, and full of strength, yet possessed the gentlest soul. She was always willing to help others and found great joy in caring for those around her.

Her greatest love was her family. She especially cherished her role as "Grandma" and adored spoiling her granddaughters, creating memories they will treasure forever.

Barbara is survived by her devoted husband of 46 years, Chris Briceno; her daughter, Jacklyn Briceno-Kainz, and son-in-law, Edwin Kainz; her son, Chris Briceno; her beloved granddaughters, Hailey, her fiancé, Jalen, Aria, Kylee, and Olivia; her brothers, of whom she was the only sister; and many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

Although her family grieves her loss tremendously, they find comfort in knowing she is no longer suffering and is resting peacefully in the loving arms of Jesus. Her faith, kindness, strength, and unconditional love will continue to inspire all who were blessed to know her.

"Well done, good and faithful servant." Matthew 25:23

Rest in paradise, our beloved wife, mom, grandma, sister, and friend. You will be forever loved, deeply missed, and always remembered.
