William Schelpf Obituary
William W. Schelpf, 69, of Neptune, passed away on Monday, January 2, 2017 at Jersey Shore University Medical Center.
Bill was born in Neptune and resided by the Jersey Shore his entire life. He graduated from Ocean Township High School in 1965 and enlisted in the US Navy. He served four years on the John F.

Ultimately, he retired as an owner-operator of an eighteen wheeler.
Bill was a loving husband, proud father and an avid fisherman. He was predeceased by his wife, Barbara Ann McGrath Schelpf in 2005 and his parents, William and Mabel Schelpf.
Surviving are his three adoring children, Amy, Colleen and Billy; his brother, Michael; and 7 grandchildren.
