Saratoga Springs, NY- It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Brian John LaBelle at his home on September 3, 2025, at the age of 41. He was born in Saratoga Springs to Stephen and Maureen Hannigan LaBelle.

Brian attended St. Clement's Regional Catholic School, Saratoga Central Catholic School, graduating in 2002, and then on to SUNY Adirondack Community College. After college, he began his work life in the hardware business, starting with many years at Quality Hardware, then to Allerdice Ace Hardware and Winn Supply.

He had a strong love of family, friends and this community. Brian was exceptionally proud of being a native Saratogian, descended from several generations starting with his great grandparents. Being a local, he loved all things Saratoga, especially horse racing and was part of several racing partnerships.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, John and Estelle Hannigan, Charles and Kathryn LaBelle, and his aunt, Anne Fortune.

Left to always cherish his memory are his parents, his cousin Amy Blake Millington and her husband Tom, his uncle Robert Fortune, his aunt Melissa LaBelle and so many other friends whose lives he touched while we had him.

All his life, Brian had a self-assured independent spirit, true to his beliefs, values, and determined work ethic. From that he never wavered. There are countless Brian stories full of his wit, wisdom, and sense of humor we will have always to comfort us.

Brian was compassionate, warm, and truly our Eyes of the World .
