Jane Barber Obituary

Visit the Peppler Funeral Home - Allentown website to view the full obituary.

Jane Barber, 72, of Wrightstown, passed away on Wednesday, March 4, 2026. Born in Trenton, she moved to Allentown, NJ in the late 1950’s and was a lifetime area resident. Jane loved nature and being outdoors. She would spend hours watching the birds in the garden and she loved helping at Durr Flower Farm in Chesterfield. In her free time, Jane enjoyed doing crafts and watching TV, especially Monster Jam. She loved going to the monster truck shows with her grandkids and even went to Las Vegas for a show. Jane always looked forward to the many packages she received from her brother, Jack, and loved her weekend lunch dates with her sister and best friend, Liz. The holidays were Jane’s favorite time of year. She would lovingly and skillfully wrap all the presents.

Daughter of the late Ruth and John Barber, she was predeceased by her sister, Carol Snyder. Jane is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Jason and Heather Barber of Allentown; her beloved grandchildren, Abby, Tyler, and Luke Barber; her brother, Jack Barber of South Carolina; her sister, Elizabeth Barber Durr of Chesterfield; her good friend and neighbor, Rose Bouchelle and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends who she loved dearly.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, March 20th from 4-8pm at the Crosswicks Community House, 480 Main St., Crosswicks, NJ 08515.
