Richard A. Schlitz, 72, of Burlington, passed away Friday, June 9, 2017 at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center, Milwaukee WI. Born in Burlington, WI on October 10, 1944, he was the son of Edward and Amelia (nee Richter) Schlitz. He was a lifetime resident of Burlington, graduating from Burlington High School in 1963; furthering his education at Waterloo Barber College, graduating in 1965. Dick was employed at Billman's Barber Shop until May 1972. On May 1, 1971, at St. Charles Catholic Church in Burlington, he was united in marriage to Deborah A. Lasco.

Dick worked for Epping Buick-Oldsmobile and Lynch Chevrolet, Buick & GMC from June 1972 until his retirement in 2008. He was a member of Burlington Jaycees, Buick Sale Master & Oldsmobile Vanguard of which he received numerous awards throughout his selling career of over 36 years. Dick also helped lead the American Cancer Golf Outing at Rivermoor Country Club, a cause very dear to him. He was a former member of St. Charles Church. He was an avid St. Louis Cardinal fan, Green Bay Packer fan and loved to play golf & fish. He was lucky enough to play Pebble Beach in California and Arnold Palmer's Bay Hills Country Club in Florida. Dick was a golf instructor at Gateway Technical College at the Burlington campus for over 10 years. While selling a Buick, he had a customer, who was an administrator at Mount Carmel now known as Burlington Rehab, who needed a barber for "just a couple of months", back in 1973. He was still actively cutting hair there until recently. Dick loved and greatly enjoyed his fishing, have it be on the local lakes with Jeremy Fowler, Canadian fishing trips with his brother Wayne & friends for over 25 years, or Back Bay fishing in Florida for the last 5 years with his good friends, Jim Bridge & Lee Gale.

He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Deborah L Schlitz; brother, Wayne Schlitz, nieces & nephews, other relatives and the many friends that he made through his professional life, as well as his everyday life. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Jack Schlitz; sister and brother-in-law, Roz and Dick Foltz and sister-in-law, Nancy Schlitz.

The family would like to thank the doctors, nurses and staff associated with Aurora Healthcare for their wonderful care and compassion. A "special" thank you to Jeremy Fowler and his family for always being there for Dick and Deborah.

Services for Dick will be held on Monday, June 19, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. at Schuette-Daniels Funeral Home with Rev. Joe Debski officiating. Visitation will be held at the funeral home on Monday, June 19th from 5:00 p.m. until the time of the service.
