Louis T. Mittelmeier "Butchie"

Louis T. Mittelmeier “Butchie” of Newark, DE, formerly of Pittsburgh, PA, passed away suddenly on Saturday, June 4, 2022. Lou was a beloved husband for 50 years to Mary Jane (States) Mittelmeier; loving father of Kevin (Andrea), Todd (Ashley) and the late Cortney Mittelmeier; and cherished grandfather of Ryan, Lauren and Brynlee. Lou was a proud brother of Richard (Alyce), James (Jackie) Mittelmeier and Mary Jo (Jay) Monroe. He was also survived by several nieces, nephews, and in-laws. Lou was born December 16, 1947 to the late Louis H. and Catherine “Betty” (Scheidl) Mittelmeier in Arlington, Pa. Retiree of 25 years from Port Authority in Pittsburgh, and rink manager for over 10 years at Ice Castle, Castle Shannon, PA. Lou was born and raised in Pittsburgh where he spent the majority of his life. Five years ago, he and Mary Jane moved to Delaware to be closer to Todd’s family. Lou was a lover of all sports. In high school, he was an extremely talented basketball and baseball player. He loved to bowl and golf and enjoyed attending football games. In 1988, he would add hockey to that list as his youngest son began playing. Lou enjoyed spending time in ice arenas across the country and devoted much of the last 30+ years, supporting teams at the high school and collegiate levels.
