Derek Barczak Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Carrier Family Funeral Home & Crematory - Windham on Jan. 7, 2026.
Derek D. Barczak, 43, of Derry, NH, passed away on Monday, January 5, 2026, at his home in Derry, NH. He was born on September 2, 1982, in Lawrence, MA, to Daniel and Susanne (Routhier) Barczak.

Derek met the love of his life, Colleen, in 2006, and the two were later married in 2012. He spent over 24 years working at Lucciano's in Londonderry and was treated like a member of family by his beloved coworkers. When away from his work, Derek enjoyed playing video games, building Legos, cracking jokes and cheering on the Red Sox.
Most notably, Derek was a family man who loved his four boys more than anything. He was also a dad to many four-legged companions over the years and had a deep kinship with his many fur babies. From new experiences like fishing with his son to unwinding at home with his loved ones, family was central to Derek's life. He coveted creating memories with his children and was tremendously proud of them.

Derek's family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation for Lou and Tina of Lucciano's in Londonderry, NH. The love and genuine kindness that they showed to Derek throughout his time with them made more of an impact than they will ever know.

In addition to his beloved wife, Colleen (Belanger,) Derek is survived by his boys, Ryan, Aaron, Connor, and Aidan; his mother and stepfather, Susanne Barczak and Steven Bradley; father, Daniel Barczak; sister, Candice Barczak; niece, Olivia; grandparents, Gerard and Betty Routhier; as well as many members of his extended family.

He was predeceased by his grandparents, Stanley and Charlotte Barczak.

Services will remain private for the family.

Arrangements are in the care of the Carrier Family Funeral Home, 38 Range Road, Windham, NH 03087. To leave a message of condolence, please visit www.carrierfuneralhome.com

Derek, we will miss you! You have been a constant presence at Luccianos over the years. You have always been there to warm up our days with your laughter and kindness. May your soul rest in peace my friend. May your boys and family find comfort in these days of mourning and celebrate the memories they had with you.

He loved loudly, laughed freely, and fought battles few could see.
A longtime friend who, in the end, became family, his heart was unmistakable.
Though his journey was heavy, his presence brought humor and warmth.
May the suffering that followed him here finally loosen its grip and may he now rest in peace. Unburdened, whole, and free.
My deepest condolences to his family especially his sons whom he loved with every ounce of himself
