Frederick Paul Lietzke

January 25, 1937-September 8, 2019

Frederick Paul Lietzke, age 82 of Temperance, went home to his Heavenly Father on Sunday, September 8, 2019 at St. Vincent Hospital in Toledo.

Fred was born on January 25, 1937 to the late Oswald and Clara (Jay) Lietzke in Adrian, MI. He has been married for over 62 years to Patricia (Studenka) Lietzke. They were married on April 27, 1957 at St. Michael Catholic Church, Monroe.

Fred enjoyed deer hunting, bowling and golfing. He loved to spend time at his cottage in Camden, MI with his loving wife Patricia and family. In the winter months, Fred and Pat would enjoy the warm weather in Palmetto, FL. One of Fred's passions was restoring his 1933 Chevrolet Master truck.

He was a volunteer firefighter for Monroe Township for 19 years. Fred was the past Vice President of the Lake Diane Association in Camden, MI. He also used to own the County Inn Storage of Monroe. Fred worked as a Supervisor for over 30 years at General Motors Powertrain in Toledo, OH. He is going to be greatly missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him.

He leaves to cherish his memory, his wife Patricia Lietzke, daughter Jill Lietzke-Pryor, daughter in law Christina Lietzke, granddaughter Heather (Jeremy) Gibson and great grandchildren: Miah (Craig) Montri and Matthew Gibson.

He was preceded in death by son Frederick "Fritz" Lietzke Jr. and his siblings: Albert Lietzke, William Lietzke, Gertrude Costello and Karen Stoll.
