Richard "Dick" Riesterer has been assisting at Wieting Family Funeral Home since 2007. Prior to that, he spent 40 years in the automobile business, including 38 years in Sales and Sales Management roles at the local GM dealership. During that time, Dick developed many, multi-generational relationships with the fine folks of Calumet and Manitowoc County, which serves him well in his new role with the Wietings. Born and raised in St. Nazianz, Dick graduated from St. Gregory High School, and studied at Sacred Heart Seminary in Oneida. He also spent six years with the U.S. Army Reserve. He is married to the former Mary Ludwig of Chilton, and has lived in Chilton for the past 16 years. Dick has four grown sons, three step-children, and 14 grandchildren. In addition to assisting at Wieting Family Funeral Home, Dick volunteers at a local nursing home and horse farm. He enjoys yard work and attending all of the exciting events his children and grandchildren are involved in.
