On February 27th, 2025, Peter Michael Stolz of Blaine, MN passed away peacefully after fighting a long and hard battle over the last five years with end-stage renal failure.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Bob and Claire Stolz, father-in-law, Roger Gerhardson, and nephew Kai Gerhardson.

Peter graduated from St. Louis Park High School and continued his education at St. John’s University. In 2009 he married Rita, his high school sweetheart, and immediately became a father of two beautiful girls, Riley, and Katrina. He was so proud of the girls and enjoyed coaching them in soccer, teaching religion classes, and cheering them on in all their other activities. He loved scary movies, reading, playing games, and spending time at the cabin with family. Peter was a great cook and genuinely enjoyed sharing his culinary creations with others! His smart wit and banter will be deeply missed.

In his final days, Peter found peace in going home to his Lord and surrounded himself with those closest to him sharing stories, laughter, and tears, leaving us with memories to comfort us today, tomorrow, and years ahead.

He is survived by his wife, Rita; daughters Riley and Katrina; brother Robb; sister Suzanne (Jeremy Butler), nieces Nicola and Pippa; mother-in-law Joan Gerhardson; sister-in-law Sheri Gerhardson; sister-in-law Sue Blank (Dan); nieces Danielle and Elisa; great nephew Mateo; brother-in-law Rick Gerhardson (Lori); nephew Chris and niece Jackie; Exchange student Pablo Estebanez; and aunts, uncles, cousins and dear friends.

Visitation will be held at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church, 5071 Eden Ave, Edina at 10:00 am on Friday, March 14th with a Mass of Christian Burial immediately following at 11:00 am.

Interment at St. Patrick’s Cemetery, Maple Grove
