Barry F. Sangrey, 82, of Lititz, passed away at his home surrounded by family on Tuesday, January 31, 2023. Born in Lancaster, he was the son of the late Earl P. and Gertrude M. (Hullihen) Sangrey. He was the beloved husband of Janice E. (Brown) Sangrey, with whom he shared over 28 years of marriage.
Barry was a 1959 graduate of J. P. McCaskey High School. He worked for 24 years as a plumber and pipe fitter for Alcoa, retiring in 2002. Barry was also a proud veteran of the US Air Force, serving honorably for 4 years during the Vietnam War. He was also a member of the Post 34 American Legion.
Barry was a volunteer firefighter with Lafayette Fire Company. He was a devout Christian and was at peace knowing he was going to Heaven. In his free time, he enjoyed bowling, golfing at Evergreen, and riding his Harley motorcycle. His granddaughter Kaitlyn was the apple of his eye. He loved spending time with her, and even got to watch her win the district championship for volleyball twice!
In addition to his wife Janice, Barry is survived by his daughter Tracy Kubena (Kerry), granddaughter Kaitlyn Kubena, nieces Kathy, Cheryl, and Christine, and his beloved cat Princess. He was preceded in death by his two sisters, Kathryn Seskis and Rosemary Wissler.

Sending my love. I remeber after we moved to Iowa he came out to visit, he had a Toyota pick up. Told him if he ever wanted to get Reid of it that I’d be willing to take it. He looked at me ,smiled and said, I BET YOU WOULD. Maybe that’s why I have I Toyota today. ❤️

Janice, I am sorry for your loss. It was always a pleasant surprise to see Barry at Evergreen and chat with him about the latest goings on at Arconic, which he always seemed to know more about than me. He was a good man and I’ll miss seeing him at “The Club”. You have my deepest sympathy.
