Leroy H. Sollenberger

member of Faith Church

Leroy H. Sollenberger, 79, of Breinigsville, died on Aug. 21, 2024, at Arden Courts after a difficult journey with Alzheimer’s dementia.

He and his wife, Mary Jane (Faus) Sollenberger, celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary in May.

Born in Lancaster, he was a son of the late J. Ivan and Emma (Huber) Sollenberger.

A 1963 graduate of Solanco High School, he earned an Associate degree in accounting from Churchman’s Business School, Easton.

He was employed by Hackman’s Bible Book Store and Air Products before starting his own financial planning firm in 1984.

Later joined by his children, he continued working until he retired.

He was a faithful member of Faith Church, Trexlertown.

He enjoyed camping and never lost his love of farming or his cherished John Deere tractor.

He loved helping people and he founded the men’s “Do Nothing” breakfast.

His greatest joy was watching his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

In addition to his loving wife, he is survived by a daughter Wendy S. David and her husband, Anthony, of Breinigsville; son Andrew T. Sollenberger and his wife, Mary, of Macungie; grandchildren Alyssa (Gary), Tyler (Brittany), Steven (Kodi), Jacob and Sofia; great-grandchildren Lylah, Connor, Hayden, Mackenzie and Kolter; siblings Glenn Sollenberger and his wife, Lois, of Shippensburg, Doris Dellinger of York, Esther Zimmerman and her husband, Roy, of Lititz; sisters-in-law Maddie Sollenberger of Lititz and Betty Sollenberger of Quarryville.

He was predeceased by his brothers Wilbur and Parke Sollenberger.
