Brandon Thomas LaBarge

Winthrop - Brandon Thomas LaBarge, a beloved father, son, brother, and partner, left this world tragically in an accident on May 17, 2026, at the early age of 28.

Born on September 17, 1997, in Potsdam, NY, to Thomas Frary and Bobbie (LaBarge) Frary, Brandon grew up in Winthrop, NY, where he cultivated a love for life that resonated through every interaction he had. He graduated from St. Lawrence Central High School in 2016.

Brandon was a dedicated electrician with the IBEW 910. A diligent provider who balanced demanding work with joy and laughter. Not only a provider for his family but also an example of integrity and commitment.

Together with his Fiancé Curissa Gambaccini, they cultivated a life filled with genuine affection and youthful adventures, an embodiment of true young love that many aspire to find.

His passion extended beyond work as he cherished his role as a father and partner, striving to be home with Curissa, Sophia, and Oliva each night.

Brandon immersed himself in his daughter's lives. Playing and laughing together was their favorite. Brandon was always goofy with them, giving them "The Claw," allowing them to get away with staying up late on weekends, dancing crazy to his heavy metal music, playing Xbox, and even letting Sophia paint his nails. He read stories at bedtime, made their favorite meals, and worked hard to instill work ethics in his girls by giving them money when they complete chores.

Brandon would attempt to do push-ups with all his girls on his back, and Sophia would try too - this feat always ending in laughter. Brandon's love for cars, especially his cherished Pontiac GTO, mirrored his adventurous spirit.

Those who knew Brandon remember his excellent storytelling ability, his contagious laugh, and the genuine kindness he shared with friends and family alike. His authenticity shone brightly, making him a well-liked young man surrounded by many friends.

Brandon will be missed by his family that survives him, fiancé Curissa Gambaccini; their two daughters Sophia (6) and Olivia (2); his mother, Bobbie (LaBarge) Frary and father Thomas Frary; brother Corey (Katie) LaBarge; sister, Kendra Frary (Joshua Allen II), a nephew, Noah LaBarge, three nieces, Vanessa, Alana, and Maya LaBarge, grandparents Bob and Beverly Riehle, several aunts, and uncles, and many cousins.

His grandparents Richard and Phyllis LaBarge predecease him.
