Wayne Wittik

Wayne Wittik, 79, of Bethlehem Township, passed on May 23, 2026, at Arden Courts. Born on November 12, 1946, in Baltimore, Maryland, he was the son of the late Albert and Ophelia Wittik. He was married to his beloved wife, Karen Wittik, for 25 years.

Wayne was a true patriot and proudly served in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War. He was a graduate of Loyola University in Maryland. Wayne worked for 33 years as a project manager for AT&T, where his strong work ethic, determination, and attention to detail were evident to all who knew him.

Wayne was known as a strong-willed man with a sharp wit and an unforgettable sense of humor. He was often the center of good-natured jokes and always took them with grace, remaining a good sport no matter what the situation. He was kind, respectful, and never afraid to stand up for what he believed was right. Those closest to him would jokingly say that Wayne was "never wrong."

A talented woodworker and stained-glass craftsman, Wayne enjoyed working with his hands and took great pride in creating beautiful pieces. He also had a passion for health and fitness and dedicated much of his time to taking care of himself and staying active. Wayne had a great appreciation for movies, 50’s music, and he loved dancing with his wife. At one time, he also enjoyed riding motorcycles.

Above all, Wayne cherished his family. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren, creating memories filled with laughter, water fights, and games; always sure to follow all the rules.

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Karen; son, Chris Wittik and wife, Nikki; daughter, Danielle Pellegrino; son, Michael Pellegrino; daughter, Samantha Sontag and daughter, Mandi Tuskes; grandchildren, Michala, Callie, Anthony, Kyle, Madison, Mia, Morgan, and Mikey; as well as his brother, Michael Wittik and wife, Lisa.
