Breiner, Jr. , 81, of Lehighton, PA, peacefully passed on Friday, February 25, 2022, at his home, surrounded by his loving children that were caring for him.  Born August 4, 1940 in Coaldale, he was the son of the late Clement P. and Ardella (Laughnor) Breiner.  He and his wife Sandra (Berger) Breiner were married on October 21, 1961.
