Obituary

Christopher David Barlieb, 62, passed away at his Manor Township home on Tuesday, August 20, 2024.

Chris was born in Lancaster, son of the late Elvin S. and E. Shirley (Brill) Barlieb. He graduated from J. P. McCaskey High School, Class of 1980, served four years, and enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1981, earned the rank of Corporal.

He worked as head of security at Kunzler & Company, Inc. for 20 years, retiring last January. Chris then worked for John K. Garvey Masonry.

Chris was a good grandpa to his grandson Arthur. He enjoyed taking Arthur swimming and always spoke about him. Chris relished family gatherings and travelling with them. He ended conversations with his family by saying "I Love You." Chris also loved his dogs Ozzie and Winkie.

Always thinking of others, Chris donated over 7 gallons of blood. He had an eclectic mix of interests as a fan of the Flyers, Phillies, Pirates and Raiders. He was an avid bicyclist, outdoorsman, hunter, and fisherman. Chris collected Moore Dairy milk bottles. He was a history buff, specifically the Civil War, and he had a framed newspaper photo of FDR's funeral train and casket on the wall, and a photo of Ronald Reagan on his fridge as well as many family photos.

Barlieb and her son Arthur Cook of Manheim, five siblings, Linda Swearingen (Paul) of Lancaster, Mark F. Barlieb, Lancaster, Sue A. Haar, Bonita Springs, FL, Amy E.
