Weppler, Richard Keith
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Richard Keith Weppler on Sunday, November 17, 2024. He passed away after a brief illness, surrounded by his family.
Rick leaves behind his dear wife of 53 years, Nancy Eileen Weppler (née Hill), and his three adoring children, Crystal Brown (Steve), Rob Weppler (Mel) and Amy Clarence (Rob). He also leaves behind his beautiful grandchildren Madalynn, Joshua, Desirae, Kestrel, Willow and Aurora, who were the light of his life.
He was predeceased by his mother Lorraine Weppler in 2005 and his father Wallace ‘Wally’ Weppler 1971.
Rick ‘Dick’ was a long-term employee of Nortel in a variety of roles until 2008, where he received accolades for his customer service and dedication, working in Kitchener, Toronto, Vancouver, Regina and the Bahamas. He then dedicated his time to driving a bus for Sharp Bus Lines in Kitchener from 2004-2008.
He was a man who was fond of reading, watching hockey games and Saturday morning Star Trek, playing games, and playing football in his high school days.
The family would like to thank all of the staff at Brightshores Health System in Meaford and Owen Sound for their kindness and compassion during this most difficult time.
Family will receive friends at the Ferguson Funeral Home in Meaford on Friday, November 22, 2024 at 1 o’clock with a celebration of life following at 2 o’clock.
