Ronald Neitzel Obituary
Ron was born on November 26, 1937 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Arnold and Dorothy Neitzel. He spent his early years there and graduated from Milwaukee School of Engineering. After graduation, he spent his career in sales and marketing at several companies in the Midwest. When he retired, he enjoyed traveling with Karen, his wife of 64 years. He was also an airline enthusiast, who spent many years collecting memorabilia, much of which was donated to the Milwaukee airport for display.
Ron is preceded in death by daughter Suzanne Grieger, son Richard Neitzel, and sister, Doris Baier.
He is survived by wife Karen, daughter Kathryn Learst (Bill), four grandchildren Bill Learst (Ashley), Steven and Sophie Grieger, Payton Ricke (Jacob), and one great grandchild, Theo Ricke.
A private family ceremony will be held for Ron with a burial at St. Hubert Cemetery in Chanhassen at a later date.
