February 19, 1962 - February 6, 2026

John Archie Pritchard, 63, of Port St. Lucie, Florida, passed away on February 6, 2026, following a brief illness. He was born on February 19, 1962, in Detroit, Michigan.

John worked as a Heavy Haul Transportation Manager and was known for his strong work ethic and steady dedication to providing for his family. He loved fishing, boating, and spending time outdoors, especially when traveling with his wife in their camper. Most of all, John was devoted to his wife, Kristine, and took great pride in caring for her.

John is survived by his beloved wife, Kristine Nelson Pritchard; his sister Pamela Burd (Gary); his brother, Robert Pritchard (Jeanne); his stepbrother Douglas Faucher (Liz Crane); his nieces Amanda Englander (Gary), Samantha Goldman (Jordan Robert), and Jessica Rodriguez (Hunter); and his great-niece and great-nephews Allison Englander, Benjamin Englander, and Connor Goldman.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in John's memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or T2T (Tunnel to Towers).
