Richard A. Ziegler II, age 63, of Cincinnati, Ohio, passed away on Sunday, October 12, 2025. Born on February 14, 1962, in Cincinnati, he was the cherished son of Richard and Norene Ziegler (nee Gellenbeck).

Richard was preceded in death by his father, Richard Ziegler I, and his mother, Norene Ziegler. He is lovingly remembered by his sister, Missy (Tony) Klug; his sister, Barb (Lester) Scheidt; as well as his nieces Ashli Klug, Tracy Scheidt, Heather (Joe) Lipps, and nephew Jason Scheidt. He is also survived by his great-nephew Logan Saylor, and great-nephews Brayden and Brenten Lipps, along with a host of other family members and dear friends.

Richard had a passion for spending quality time with family and friends. He enjoyed listening to music, camping, and engaging in outdoor activities like riding his quad, playing pool, darts, and horseshoes. He had a fondness for classic shows such as *General Hospital* and *The Andy Griffith Show*, and he took pleasure in working on his home projects, especially maintaining his van.

A talented cook and baker, Richard always sought out new recipes to try. He will be missed for his kindness and willingness to lend a helping hand, day or night. His love for a cold Miller High Life or Budweiser was well-known among those close to him.
