Andrea Rose (Brintzenhoff) Batz, 47, of Blandon, passed away on Sunday, October 10, 2021 in Tower Health - Reading Hospital and Medical Center, West Reading, with her family and Pastor by her side. She has been awarded a place in heaven to walk with her Lord and Savior, without pain, never having to suffer again. She was the loving wife of David D. Batz whom she married on September 21, 1996.

Born in Allentown, Andrea was a daughter of Donald L. Brintzenhoff of Lyon Station, and the late Sandra M. (Moyer) Brintzenhoff, who passed away three weeks prior on September 17, 2021.

She would also assist her husband David with his business, D. Batz Carpentry. She was a dedicated and faithful member of St. Paul's United Church of Christ, Fleetwood. Andrea was a wine enthusiast who also enjoyed preparing and planning meals, reading a great romance novel, and trips to the beach with her family and friends. Above all, Andrea loved her family, especially her two daughters. She always took it upon herself to take care of her parents as well. She was a loving daughter, wife, mother, sister and friend who will be sorely missed by so many who loved her in return.
