Patricia (Patty) Zepf (nee Strotman) passed away on December 22, 2020 at the age of 77. Survived by her devoted husband of 50 years Richard (Rick) Zepf and her loving children Kevin Zepf and Karen Heinrich (Tim); grandchildren Madeleine and Timmy Heinrich and Declan Zepf; sister Marge Kinne and many dear nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by her parents Joseph and Margaret (nee Patterson) Strotman; brothers Joseph and Robert Strotman; and sisters Kathleen Hansbauer (Harry), Mary Sinnard (Bob) and Judy Madigan Butterly (Jim). Patty graduated from Regina High School in 1961 and then worked several years at General Foods and the former Chevrolet plant in Norwood. She married Rick, the love of her life, in 1970 in Honolulu, Hawaii while Rick was on R&R from Vietnam. Patty and Rick celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on February 16, 2020. Patty devoted her life to her family and visited her mother Margaret daily in the nursing home for 14 years until Margaret passed away. Patty suffered for several years with various health issues without ever complaining. She will be missed terribly by Rick and her loving family. May she rest now with no more suffering in God's peace, joy and love.
