Anneliese Emilie Barth
Anneliese Emilie Barth, of Newtown, peacefully went home to be with Jesus on Wednesday, November 20, 2019. She was 95 years old.
Anneliese was the wife of the late Donald Russell Barth, to whom she was married for over 58 years. They enjoyed travelling, especially cruises, serving together at church and selling handmade wooden models made by Donald at craft fairs. A particular joy for them was caring for their grandchildren.
Born in Germany to the late Erwin and Anna (Zorn) Zahn, Anneliese immigrated to the US at the age of 3. She lived in New York, graduating from Grover Cleveland High School, and then went to work in banking and Insurance. Her priority, however, was always her family and her church life.
Anneliese will be greatly missed by her children, Susan L. Rizzo and Linda A. Jaggard and her husband, Peter Jaggard; her grandchildren, Timothy and his wife, Liz, Matthew, Peter, Kyle; and her great grandchildren, Angelina and Charlotte.
Relatives and friends are invited to greet the family on Monday, November 25, 2019 from 4:30pm until the start of her Funeral Service, 6:00pm, at New Life Christian Church, 4 Freedom Drive in Newtown, PA 18940, with Rev. Dr. Norman Leve officiating. Anneliese’s interment will take place privately, at a later date.
