Alan “ Al” Robert Haitsch
Alan “Al” Haitsch, age 63, passed away peacefully on March 26, 2024, at his home in Chardon, Ohio. He was born on February 13, 1961, in New Fairfield, Connecticut, to the late Robert and Elizabeth Haitsch (nee: Healey).
In 1994, Al embarked on a new chapter of his life when he and his fiancée, Karen Lucchesi, relocated to Ohio. They settled in Chardon in 1998, where they built a life filled with love and cherished memories.
Al dedicated 47 years of his life to Aerocontrolex, where he worked as a skilled lab technician. His commitment and passion for his work were evident to all who knew him.
Beyond his professional life, Al found joy in the simple pleasures of tinkering around the house and indulging in his passion for computers and gaming. However, his greatest source of happiness was his family. He treasured every moment spent with his loved ones, creating lasting bonds and unforgettable experiences.
Al is survived by his devoted fiancée, Karen; his children, Michael (Tonya) Haitsch and Arthur; and Karen’s children, Heather Vater and Eric Vater, whom he embraced as his own. He also leaves behind eight grandchildren who held a special place in his heart.
He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother, Kevin Haitsch.
Al’s warm smile, generous heart, and unwavering love will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. His legacy of love and laughter will continue to live on in the hearts of those he leaves behind.
