Dennis Robert Loeppky
March 1st, 1939 ~ February 8th, 2022
Dennis is survived by his wife of over 50 years, Lisa Loeppky, two sons, his sister, and the apple of his eye his grandson.
Dennis was always on the move and had many accomplishments. He prided himself on being a hard worker. When he was in elementary school, he had a paper route that was later split into 4 parts to be manageable to other paper carriers. In high school, he was the president of the local DeMolay chapter, an international nonprofit group, also, Dennis was on the high school basketball team as a guard. Additionally, he completed grade 10 in the Royal Conservatory of Music studying piano. Always a dreamer and an opportunist, in the 1980's, Dennis considered a move to South Africa where he would have an ice factory business. Vocationally, he found his niche in real estate taking on several roles, as a notary public, realtor, appraiser, home builder, and developer. He retired at 55 to enjoy Rotary, reading, travelling, gardening, golfing, and telling stories in or out of a coffee klatch. Throughout his life he was known for being outgoing, caring and sometimes feisty. Many times, while at home or travelling abroad, he would stop to strike up a conversation with strangers.
In the summer of 2022, a celebration of life service will be held for friends and family. For additional details see https://everloved.com/life-of/dennis-loeppky/

My sincerest condolences to his family. I had the pleasure of meeting both Dennis and his lovely wife Lisa. His family and friends were truly blessed to have Dennis in their lives. He was so willing to share his opinions, stories and talents with everyone. His breadth of knowledge was impressive, and he was always kind and thoughtful. When he became a grandfather he was ecstatic and shared his joy of life even more. His kind spirit will always be remembered. May he Rest In Peace.
Dear Lisa, We were very saddened to read of Dennis' death. As your Langley neighbors we had some great times together. We always found Dennis to be an energetic, outgoing, and colorful guy, also a dedicated father. You had a solid marriage and always supported each other; you would occasionally go back to work, nursing, when cash was short. That's called spousal support! I still recall the dinner we had with you one summer when your dog stole the steaks off the BBQ. We all had a great laugh. We were sorry to see you move but we all make changes in our lives to make them better. We have lived in Ocean Park for the past 20 years - a nice neighborhood and close to Crescent Beach. We wish you and your children much success and happiness in the years ahead. Give my condolences to Chris, who I taught Physics, at LTHS. I'm sure he is doing well. Sincerely, David and Sharon
