Sisto Ganz Obituary

Ganz, Sisto The same year the first Model T was manufactured and the same year of the first Trans Atlantic Flight by Charles Lindbergh, Sisto Ganz was born, in a house in Chicago, IL on October 19, 1927. Ask anyone who knew him, he was that rare, beautiful person you just loved to be around. We cannot believe he is gone from all of us. We will miss him and his smile forever. So lucky to have him as our father, grandfather and friend. It is no surprise that he followed his wife to heaven within weeks, never wanting her to be by herself. He was a prince. Sisto is survived by his daughter, Suzanne Richter (Rick Richter); daughter, Janice Zobel (Henry Zobel); and daughter, Barbara Ann Garren (Timothy Garren); grandchildren, Sean Kehoe (Lauren Kehoe), Chase Richter (Kelly Richter), Garren Richter, Tate Richter, Riley Zobel, McKenna Zobel and Max. A Memorial Mass for Sisto Ganz will be held on Saturday, November 29, 2014 at St. Francis De Sales Catholic Church, 33 S. Buesching Rd., Lake Zurich, IL 60047. The memorial visitation will begin at 10:00 a.m. followed by the Memorial Mass at 11:00 a.m. Arrangements by Ahlgrim Family Funeral Home, Lake Zurich. For Info. 847-540-8871 or www.ahlgrimffs.com
