Alan Barney Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Alan Barney of Easton, Pennsylvania, born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, who passed away on December 30, 2020, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Alan Barney to pay them a last tribute.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Jerome Barney and Natalie Barney (Jackson); his children, Janis Schachter of Northport, NY, Linda Barney (Rodney Raughley) of Kunkletown, PA and Douglas Barney of Madrid, Spain.; his grandchildren, Jacob Hottenstein (Amanda Darley), Ari Schachter and Noa Schachter; his siblings, Jeralie Walters and Kent Barney; his nephew Scott Walters; his friend Veronica Gonzalez; Catherine. He was also cherished by his cousins, nieces, and nephews.

Although the social restrictions of the pandemic cramped his style, he was determined to live life to the fullest and the best way he knew how: driving those who needed rides to their doctor appointments or to the grocery store, switching to virtual hospice visits, and planning new ways to bring together the older singles in his church community.

Alan has asked that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Grace Church Bethlehem, 521 E. Locust St., Bethlehem, PA, 18018.
