Donald Robitzer Obituary

Donald Scott Robitzer, 74, passed away on July 9, 2022 at his Exeter Township residence. He was the loving husband of Marian (Scantzos) Robitzer, with whom he shared 22 years of marriage. Born in Wyomissing, he was the son of Donald J. and Arlene (Haines) Robitzer. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Maryland, he began working at the family business, Village Greens Golf Course, before becoming the owner of Hollywood Cleaners in 1976. He later expanded the business, opening multiple locations and delivery routes. He was always active, pursuing many interests such as breeding and racing horses, racing vintage cars, hunting and offshore fishing. But most of all, he loved working on his farm and being surrounded by family and friends. In addition to his wife, Donald is survived by his children: Donald S. Robitzer, Jr. (Heather) of Kennett Square, Melissa Steber (Matthew) of Wyomissing, and Harrison Robitzer of Exeter Township; siblings: Karen MacKenzie (Barry) of Shillington, Scott Robitzer (Janet) of Sinking Spring, and Randal Robitzer (Barbara) of Reinholds; and grandchildren: Lily and Mattie Robitzer, and Sara and Maggie Steber. The family will receive guests from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, followed by a prayer service, Friday, July 15 at Kuhn Funeral Home, 739 Penn Ave, West Reading.

My deepest sympathies to the family. Don was my boss when I worked at Rockland store. I have to say he was my absolute favorite person to work for. I will always remember him being so kind and nice to me. Keeping all of you in my prayers.

My sincere condolences. Don gave me my first job at 14 and I have such fond memories of the plant when my mom worked there as well. He was such a great guy. My condolences to his family as well as the Hollywood family he built through the years <3
