Barry's Obituary
Barry A. Zonno, age 82, of Erie passed away on Friday, March 29, 2024, at Sarah Reed Senior Living. Barry was born in Erie on December 7,
1941, son of the late Alfred J. and Olga E. (Drachenberg) Zonno.
Barry graduated from Strong Vincent High School and proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corps. He went on to serve as a
City of Erie Fire Fighter for 15 years, attaining the rank of Lieutenant. Barry retired after his career was tragically cut short when he was
critically injured at the site of a structure fire on March 15, 1980.
Despite his injuries, Barry remained an active part of the Erie community. He loved spending time with family and friends, and was known for
his infectious smile and blue eyes. When his sons were young, Barry could always be found behind the lens of a camera or camcorder, filming
wrestling matches, football games, and anything to do with his family. Barry enjoyed boating, fishing, hunting, and visiting the casino. He was
an avid wood-worker and enjoyed creating stained glass pieces for friends and family. Barry was a foodie. He loved a good burger and garlic
parmesan chicken wings, but nothing could come close to his love of anything Bonnie cooked!
