Obituary for Douglas P. Hawk
Douglas P. Hawk, 73, of Saylorsburg, passed away Thursday, November 10, in his home.
He was the loving husband of Brenda J. (Serfass) Hawk. They celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary in October.
Born in East Stroudsburg, he was the son of the late Paul Hawk and the late Elaine (Ziegenfus) Hawk.
Douglas was a member of St. Matthew's UCC in Kunkletown. He graduated from Pleasant Valley High School in 1967. He was a truck driver for thirty years and worked at Consolidated Freight for twenty of those years. He then went on to work at Frantz Landscaping in Brodheadsville for a few years. He was a Vietnam US Army Veteran; a member of the Hi-Winders Car Club in Mt. Bethel, and he was a West End Fair Director for the past thirteen years. His life's passion, however, was building his street rods and working on classic cars. Most of all, he was a loving and caring husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He will be deeply missed by all his friends and family.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by a son, Scott Hawk and his wife Kay of Palmerton; a daughter, Melanie Frantz and her husband Jason of Brodheadsville; a sister, Luann Ziegler and her husband Bill of Albrightsville; and three grandchildren, Joshua Frantz, Nicholas Hawk, and Morgan Frantz.
A visitation will be held on Saturday, November 19, from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM from the St. Matthew's UCC in Kunkletown. Church services will follow at 10:30 AM with Rev. Suzanne Brooks-Cope officiating. Burial will follow in St. Matthew's Cemetery, Kunkletown.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Matthew's UCC, 102 Church Road, Kunkletown, PA 18058.
The Kresge Funeral Home, 1763 Route 209, Brodheadsville, is in charge of the arrangements.
