Richard "Rich" Kleczkowski passed away on November 23, 2023 at the age of 72, in his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He took his last breaths where he loved to be the most, at home and next to his beloved wife, Jeanie.

Besides his best friend and wife, Jeanie Kleczkowski (Kinziger), his loving family includes his two children, Nicholas (Laura) and David Kleczkowski, as well as his adoring grandsons, Nicholas "Nicky", Oscar and Thaddeus "Teddy". He was preceded in death by parents Tadeusz Kleczkowski and Elizabeth Drago, both first generation immigrants from Poland, as well as his wonderful sister Angelica Von Jentzen.

Those who knew Rich know the things he cherished, most being his family, his friends, the Green Bay Packers and his 1966 Pontiac GTO. Rich loved nothing more than driving around to watch his grandsons play baseball. He logged more than 500 baseball games in all kinds of weather, and he and Jeanie earned notoriety for their placement behind home plate in their old school lawn chairs.

Rich passed away on Thanksgiving, after an amazing Green Bay Packers win, as he would have wanted. Rich will be remembered for his kindness, humor and incredible generosity and every Thanksgiving, his family will remember and be thankful for the moments shared with him.
