Brian Leitgeb Obituary

Brian J. Leitgeb, 65, of New Ringgold, passed away on Sunday, September 28, 2025. He was the devoted husband of Michele S. (DiCapo) Leitgeb, with whom he shared 38 wonderful years of marriage filled with love, laughter, and faith. Born on April 2, 1960, in Allentown, Brian was the son of the late Rudolph and Dolores (Long) Leitgeb. A proud graduate of Parkland High School, Class of 1978, he went on to earn his associate's degree from Lincoln Technical Institute. He built a respected career as a Lead Electronic Technician at World Electronics in Reading, where he worked with dedication since 2007. Brian was a man of deep faith and attended Glad Tidings Assembly of God in Reading. He not only lived by his faith but also shared it openly, finding joy in spreading the Word of God and telling others about Jesus Christ. His love for the Lord was evident in the way he treated people with kindness, humility, and compassion. He found his greatest joy in the outdoors whether it was hunting, fishing, or simply spending time in nature with his family. To Brian, these moments were more than hobbies; they were ways to create memories, share wisdom, and pass down traditions to the next generation. Above all, he treasured being a husband, father, and friend. Brian's legacy will live on through the countless lives he touched not only with his warmth and generosity, but also through the example of his unwavering faith in Christ. Survivors: In addition to his wife, Michele; son, Joshua M. Leitgeb and his wife, Audry G. Leitgeb of Dallas, TX; brother, Keith (Cheryl) Leitgeb of Palatine, IL; niece, Leigh Ann (Andrew) Mount of Frisco, TX; and nephew, Todd (Alexa) Leitgeb of Western Springs, IL Service: Funeral services will be held 11:00 am. Monday, October 6, 2025, at the Heintzelman Funeral Home, Inc., 4906 Route 309, Schnecksville. Family and friends may pay their respects from 10:00 am. – 11:00 am. prior to the service.
