Douglas Heimbach Obituary
Born on September 24, 1960, in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, Doug had a lifelong passion for motorcycles. Whether riding the open roads, building custom bikes, or meticulously repairing them, he found joy and fulfillment in every aspect of motorcycle culture. His dedication to craftsmanship and love for the road left a lasting impression on those who shared his enthusiasm.
Doug is survived by his loving wife, Denise Heimbach; daughters Kimberly Gwilliam and Jennifer Messina; sister Diane Heimbach; and grandchildren Leah Messina and Miles Messina. His beloved dog, Quincy, was a constant companion and source of comfort. He was predeceased by his parents, Douglas C. Heimbach and Carol Heimbach, as well as his brother, David Heimbach.
A viewing will be held on February 20, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Catagnus Funeral Home, located at 711 N. Franklin St., Pottstown, Pennsylvania, 19464.
Doug's memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew him. May his legacy bring comfort to family and friends during this time of loss.

Losing him is painful, and I don´t think that pain will ever fully go away. I can picture him now: he´s on the other side, riding his motorcycle through the clouds, wind in his beard, engine roaring, no more limits. Just open roads and endless skies.
Daddy, we love you. We miss you. And I hope wherever you are, you´re riding free.
