Anthony M. Pietluck, age 84, of Pleasant Prairie, passed away on Saturday, March 18, 2017 peacefully surrounded by his loving family.

Born in Chicago, IL, on June 14, 1932, he was the son of the late Michael and Mary (Blaida) Pietluck.

He proudly served in the US Army.

Anthony was united in marriage to Gloria M. Traicoff, at St. Sebastian in Sturtevant, WI.  They were blessed with three children and over 50 years of marriage.

He worked for the Pure Milk Association until 1970. Anthony was employed with Tri-Clover until his retirement in 1992.  He enjoyed farming at both his farms in Pleasant Prairie and Paris.

Anthony’s greatest joy was being outdoors-farming, hunting or fishing. He enjoyed the quiet and found peace at his second home in Oxford, WI, where he aspired to make it his permanent home. It was a beautiful area but he couldn’t bear to be away from his children and grandchildren-he loved them all dearly.

He will be deeply missed by his wife, Gloria; his three children, Debra (Joe) Giorno of Kenosha, Wayne (Nicole) Pietluck of Wilmot and Linda (Roland) Iwen of Paris; his six grandchildren, Stacy, Joey, Michelle, Tony, Luke and Elisabeth and a brother, Joseph Pitluck of Worth, IL.

Along with his parents, Anthony was preceded in death by three brothers, Michael, Andrew and Frank.
