Warren Herbert Ziegler, 85, of Kutztown, died on Monday, December 12, 2016, in Lehigh Valley Hospital, Salisbury Township. He was the widower of Fern B. (Knabb) Ziegler, who died on February 17, 1990. They were married 38 years prior to Fern's passing.
Born in Maxatawny Township, Warren was a son of the late Fred A. and Katie F. (Moll) Ziegler.
He was a member of the Reformed Congregation of Ziegels Union Church, Breinigsville, and was a 1949 graduate of Kutztown Area High School.
Warren was a general contractor who began his career working for his father, Frederick. He took over his father's business, upon his retirement, and owned Warren Ziegler General Contracting from 1967, until his retirement in 2005.
He enjoyed snowmobiling, cooking and baking his famous cookies later in his life. He was also a Philadelphia Phillies fan and a woodworker, who could be found tinkering around his home. Above all, Warren was a dedicated family man who loved spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who he greatly adored.
