Allan Ritz passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, July 2, 2026, at the age of 71.

Born on September 15, 1954, in Rochester, New York, Al attended the University at Buffalo. He worked at the Monroe County Department of Social Services, and retired in 2018.

Throughout his life, he was known for his kind heart, quick wit, and wonderful sense of humor. He always had a funny story to tell and had a special gift for making people laugh. Whether through his humor or the quiet ways he looked out for others, Al made a lasting impression on the people who knew him.

Al was a devoted husband and father who loved his family deeply. He is lovingly remembered by his wife, Debbie; his daughter, Anne; his son-in-law, Rob; and many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

Al enjoyed the simple things in life. There was almost always a game on the television, and he loved following football, baseball, and fantasy sports. He also had a lifelong love for dogs, sharing a special bond with each one he welcomed into his family. His sense of humor, kindness, and quiet generosity will be remembered by all who knew him.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Al's memory to Breakthrough T1D.
