Craig S. Pfautz, 70

January 26, 2021

Craig S. Pfautz, affectionately known to many as “Fred”, 70, of Lititz, passed away on January 26, 2021. Born and raised in Lancaster, he was the son of the late Joseph H. and June Pfautz. He was also the loving husband of Wendy Pfautz for more than 37 years.

Fred was a simple man that enjoyed simple things. He was often found sitting on his front porch smoking a cigar, doing crossword puzzles and socializing with his neighbors. His sons meant everything to him and he treasured spending time with his family. Every Saturday he could be found cheering on his alma mater, Penn State.

His love and laughter will live on in his wife: Wendy, sons: Craig Pfautz (Pamela M.) of Pittsburgh and Cory Pfautz (Stacy L.) of Ephrata, granddaughter: Lea J. Pfautz, brother: Joe Pfautz (Ruth) of Lititz, as well as a host of nieces and nephews.
A casual drop in gathering will be held on Sunday, January 31, 2021 at the Charles F. Snyder Jr. Funeral Home & Crematory, 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz, PA 17543, from 10AM-12PM. The family encourages everyone to dress casually. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Penn State THON

So sorry for your loss. I was shocked to read the news. I worked with Fred at Habitat. 
We sat and talked one day to find out that we grew up about half a block from each other and knew the same people. We became friends and had some good laughs.  He was a good guy. I hope that he was not in any pain. My prayers to you and the Family.

We were deeply saddened to hear of Craig’s passing. Even though we lost touch in recent years I always considered Craig as a very dear friend and you guys were thought of often. May God be with your family through this difficult time.
