Walter M. Pietrzyk, Sr. born on May 9, 1965 from Washington Township, NJ. He and his sister Joline were raised by his beloved parents Walter and Virginia Pietrzyk. As a kid Walter always loved spending time with his grandparents, doing outdoor activities such as going out on the boat and fishing. As he grew older, he developed a new-found love for sports, wrestling and football in particular, which then progressed to a love for coaching midget football.
In 1988, Walt met his beautiful loving wife Linda (who he always “loved more”) and together they share three sons, Walter Jr, Cory, and Zachary. As a family they were always seen either at the football fields where Coach Walt could always be spotted on the “Walt-mobile” headed down the newly named “Coach Walt’s Way” or vacationing together in one of the many tropical places he loved to go. He will be remembered always for his unwavering dedication to his family and the unforgettable impact he made on the wrestling/football/baseball community within his hometown.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend his viewing Tuesday 8:15 – 10:45 am at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Road, Washington Twp. Mass of Christian Burial 11:30 am at SS. Peter & Paul RC Church, Washington Twp.
