Jim Hollenbach Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born in West Reading, he was the son of the late William S. Hollenbach and Norma (Schantzenbach) Hollenbach.
A graduate of Penn State University, member of Sigma Pi Fraternity, Jim was President of Hollenbach Construction until his retirement in 2009. He remained involved in various business ventures throughout his life.
Jim loved spending time with his family and friends, was an avid fisherman and hunter, and enjoyed traveling. There was no project, big or small, he couldn't conquer. You would usually see him with his dogs by his side. Jim was smart, sensible, and had a big heart.
Surviving is his daughter Stephanie Hollenbach, wife of Garrick Smith; son Andrew Hollenbach; stepdaughter Kaitlyn (Hipple) Robinson; sister Priscilla Anderson, wife of Charles; grandchildren Nolan and Tessa Smith, Dylan and Savannah Robinson; nieces Megan and Corin; and several great nieces and great nephews.
