Obituary

Franklin "Frank" H. Wendling, Jr. and his wife, Dianne L. (Reitz) Wendling, passed away on Tuesday, April 4, 2023.  The Wendling's were inseparable in life and are together in their death.  Later this month, they would have been married 57 years.

Frank was born in Allentown to the late Franklin, Sr. and Elsie (Rhoads) Wendling.  Frank spent his working life as an insurance accountant, and the latter portion of his career as an insurance executive and consultant.  He was an avid fisherman who never met a trout he did not like.  He also enjoyed travel, music, and often painfully, the Philadelphia Phillies.  First and foremost, he enjoyed anything with his wife, Dianne.

Dianne was born in Allentown to the late Allen and Hazel (Snyder) Reitz.  She spent her working life as a nurse and particularly enjoyed the care of the geriatric patient.  She also liked music and travel, as well as needlepoint.  However, what she enjoyed the most was dancing with the love of her life, Frank.

Survivors: sons, Scott Wendling of Walnutport and Dr. Mark Wendling, wife Melodie, of Center Valley, and grandsons, Matthew and Andrew.  Frank was also survived by siblings, Robert "Butch" Wendling of Topton and Susan and husband Frank Sterner of Fleetwood.  Dianne was survived by siblings. Richard and wife Charlotte Reitz of Montousville and sister Jean Weida of Allentown.  She was predeceased by her oldest brother Mark Reitz.
