Kenneth Anthony Ritz, 73, of Spotswood, NJ passed away at home on November 24, 2021 surrounded by family. Kenny is survived by his wife of 52 years Greta Ritz, his daughter Candace Bertelson, grandson Chance Bertelson, sister Angela Mondello, her husband Joseph Mondello, their son Nicholas Mondello, and many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
Kenny was predeceased by his parents Elizabeth Iacouzze-Ritz and father Anthony Ritz. Kenny was born in New Brunswick, NJ and was raised in Edison, NJ prior to moving to Spotswood, NJ where he resided for 45 years. Kenny was a painter and spackler by trade and worked as a construction project manager on various construction sites. Kenny loved to fish and enjoyed the company of his friends on various fishing trips, especially to Costa Rica. He enjoyed Atlantic City, horse racing, dining out, and especially cherished time spent with family and his many friends. His smile, amazing sense of humor, and generosity will be greatly missed by everyone. His memory will remain in our hearts forever.
