Arthur Eugene Barringer
Born Dec. 10, 1947, in Warren, Ohio, to Harold and Thelma (nee Watterman) Barringer, Arthur “Art” Eugene Barringer passed away on May 5, 2025, at Danbury Senior Living in Westerville, Ohio, after a courageous battle against Alzheimer’s Disease.
Art married his high school sweetheart, Roberta (nee Buckley), on Nov. 19, 1966.
A proud graduate of Cardinal High School, Class of 1966, Art served eight years in the U.S. Air Force. He was stationed for a time in Anchorage, Alaska, where he and Roberta welcomed daughter, Michele. Following his honorable discharge, Art returned with his family to Northeast Ohio where he worked for Schloss Paving for over 25 years until his retirement.
Art loved his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and embodied the words of Matthew 25:40: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me,” living his faith through acts of service and love.
Art is survived by his faithful and loving wife, Roberta; his daughter, Michele (David) Meulenberg; his grandson, Justin Mills; his sisters, Anne (Mike) Barringer-Stoops and Edna (Tony) Perry; and several cousins, nieces and nephews.
