Richard F. Pfeiffer Jr., 66, of Northford, passed away peacefully with his loved ones by his side on Saturday March 4, 2023, at Yale New Haven Hospital.  He was the beloved husband of 41 years to Karyn Trombley Pfeiffer.  Rick was born in New Haven on July 13, 1956, and was the son of the late Richard F. Pfeiffer Sr. and Loretta Quinn Pfeiffer.  Beloved father of Fallon Perrelli (Giovanni) and Richard F. Pfeiffer III (June Ouellette).  Loving grandfather of Giovanni Perrelli Jr. and Giulianna Perrelli.  Also survived by his companion Barbara Fitzgerald. Brother of Donna Pfeiffer and the late Paul Pfeiffer. 

He worked as a regional sales manager for Arrow Electronics and later was the owner and operator of Aquarium Concepts in Branford for many years.  Rick was a member of the Indian Neck Yacht Club and the Branford Elks. He was an avid Yankee, Uconn, and Jets fan. He had an extreme passion for everything he did.  He enjoyed boating, fishing, speaking at AA meetings, playing cards, and trips to Block Island which was like his second home.  But above all, his greatest joys were playing and spending time with his grandchildren who he loved unconditionally. Rick will truly be missed by all who knew and loved him.
