Richard Allan Pitsker

This is an unbelieveable loss. Mr. Pitsker was a great man. I remember him from Jr. High School and I am now 39 years old. I am so sorry for your loss. I was actually in Vegas and heard about this from my brother who heard it from someone in San Diego. Your husband and your dad lives through so many people. God Bless you guys and I pray for strength in your loss.

Mr. Pitsker was my coach the first year I started track (last year). He was very supportive and always made me smile even during the hardest practices. Pit was always so encouraging and you wanted to improve just so you could tell him and make him proud. He will be remembered and sorely missed at P.V.

Coach Pit started at CJHS the year before I did. He quickly became one of my favorites. He made junior high fun and practices a learning experience. Those are tough years on anybody but he helped make those years bearable for me. Coach was a role model for me because I am now a teacher in a middle school. I thanked him a few years ago for those conversations and for taking the time with young men like myself. Those extra minutes really helped to shape my life and my family's.God Bless you all.

Mr. Pitsker was one of those teachers you will always remember. He always had that great smile and kind eyes.

He was teaching PE at CJHS when I first met him and I cherish the picture I have of the two of us at the 9th grade graduation pool party. Like Sandy Magoon, both Brett and I smile everytime we think of him. A high school football game will not occur without fond memories of his love of sports.

We are so sorry for your loss.

May God bless you and comfort you.

Diane, Carrie & Stacy,
I think of you daily & hope you are doing ok. I am so very sorry for your loss. Your family always brings a smile to my face when I think about the days I was lucky enough to babysit for you. Lots of good memories just like you have of Ric. Please let me know if there is anything I can do.
Love you,
