IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Barbara Ann
Koch
March 28, 1950 – August 1, 2025
Barbara Ann Koch, 75, of Allentown, Pennsylvania passed August 1st, 2025. Born to parents Richard and Marion (Lobe) Stollbrink in Queens, New York, she was the wife of the late George Koch from 1969 until his passing in 1987. Barbara graduated from a catholic high school before going on to attend business school and to work as a secretary for a law office.
Barbara loved her family, and was especially involved with her granddaughters. She was loving and easygoing, and never complained. Barbara loved to go on car rides, ideally accompanied by a Starbucks Mocha Frappuccino. When at home, Barbara enjoyed her soaps, General Hospital and Judge Judy, and sitting in the backyard enjoying her coffee and the birds. She enjoyed travelling and the beach, especially the family's yearly trips to Rehoboth Beach.
Barbara is survived by her daughters, Deborah (Bob) Haglan-Eross and Donna (Brian) Lix; granddaughters Brianna Haglan and Makenzie Lix; brother Stephen (Patty) Stollbrink; and brother-in-law Fred (Camille) Koch and their children.
In addition to her parents and her husband George, Barbara is predeceased by her brother Michael.
