It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of Carolyn Epperheimer who passed away May 28, 2024, at her residence with all of her family by her side.

She married Ron Epperheimer on January 12, 1968. They shared over 56 years of marriage.
She loved many things but one of the things that she was known for was a fantastic crafter who enjoyed woodworking. Also, she loved to travel to Branson, Missouri. Carolyn loved to collect Betty Boop memorabilia and display all her collectibles. But the greatest thing Carolyn loved was her family – it was big, and she enjoyed each one of them and loved them dearly.
