Barbara Leber

Barbara Leber, 76, residing in Sandusky, passed away Thursday morning, December 15, 2022 at Stein Hospice following a brief illness.

Barb was born May 13, 1946 in Fremont, OH to the late Lester and Rosetta (Boss) Leber.

Barb grew up in Bellevue, OH, where she graduated from York High School. She moved to Sandusky and became a lifelong resident. Barb owned and operated the Pizza House West on Tiffin Ave. for many years, where she became known as the "pizza queen". After selling the Sandusky Pizza House, she opened the Bellevue Pizza House with her niece, Johna Warner and her brother, Mike. Barb was instrumental in helping others establish their own pizza businesses and her influence continues to successfully guide them today.

She helped raise her nieces, nephews and godchildren. She enjoyed cooking, bowling, visiting with friends, hosting parties and spending time with her family and friends. Barb was a very giving and caring person, and she will be greatly missed.

Barb is survived by her sister, Linda Kaufman of Sandusky; her brothers, Mike, Pat (Regina) both of Bellevue, Tom (Susan) of Clyde and Steve (Tami) Leber of Green Springs, OH and numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and close friends.

Including her parents, she is preceded in death by her niece, Karen Leber and nephews, Chris Earhart and Jamie Leber.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, December 21, 2022 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Groff Funeral Homes and Crematory, 1607 E. Perkins Ave. Sandusky, OH.

In lieu of flowers those wishing to contribute to Barb's memory may do so to Stein Hospice 1200 Sycamore Line, Sandusky, OH 44870.
