In honor of Steve Rietzke, we're supporting PanCAN’s vision to create a world in which all patients with pancreatic cancer will thrive.
Stephen T. Rietzke, 56, passed away suddenly after a shocking and brief battle with Pancreatic Cancer on June 27, 2024, surrounded by family, friends, and neighbors.
Steve was always full of life and a friend to all. He enjoyed spending time with others drinking a Guinness and listening to the Grateful Dead while watching the sunset. He spent his time making slightly burnt pancakes on Sundays, golfing with his sons and friends, and enjoying the “occasional” cigar after dinner. Fall weekends were sacred, spent watching the Birds and Notre Dame football. He loved being a Delaware, Saint Joe’s, and Penn State fan. Vacationing in Avalon or Sea Isle was the highlight of every summer.
