Clarence M. Reidel

Clarence M. "Rocky" Reidel, gracefully completed his earthly journey on December 10, 2023, at the age of 75. Born on September 6, 1948, in Burnham, PA, Rocky's presence brought joy and warmth to the lives of all who knew him. 

Having earned his high school diploma, Rocky dedicated years of hard work as a warehouse worker in the retail industry, serving Sears faithfully. 

Born with a competitive spirit, Rocky found great happiness in various pastimes. He eagerly participated in bowling, supported his favorite teams, the Phillies, Eagles, and Miami Heat, cherishing each game and indulging in the excitement they brought.

Beloved brother to Charles Reidel and Edith Gable, Rocky's memory will forever live on in the hearts of his family. He leaves behind his devoted sister-in-law, Kim Reidel, as well as his cherished nephews, Andrew Reidel and spouse Kate and Jason Reidel and spouse Emily; great niece Ava Reidel; great nephew Chase Reidel. He was preceded in death by wife Sharon Reidel nee Readinger.

Rocky's final rites will be honored with the following services: a public viewing at St. Luke's Episcopal Church on December 19, 2023, at 10:30 am, followed by a funeral service at 11:30 am. The services will culminate in a graveside service at the Indiantown Gap National Cemetery at 1:30 pm, where Rocky will be laid to rest. 

As a proud Army veteran, having served with dedication and distinction, Rocky's commitment to his country was commendable. Enlisting in the Army on July 12, 1967, and completing his service as a SP4, Rocky's noble contribution will endure as a testament to his patriotic spirit.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to the VA Hospice, 1700 S. Lincoln Ave., Lebanon, PA 17042.
