Dorothy Patricia "Dottie Sperduto" Eipper

With deep love and sorrow, we announce the passing of Dorothy "Dottie" Patricia Eipper, who departed this life peacefully on October 1, 2025, at the Franklin House in Franklin, North Carolina. She was 90 years old.

Born on October 22, 1934, Dottie was the beloved daughter of the late Patrick and Stella Miscavage Sperduto. She was preceded in death by her devoted husband, Mr. Donald Elwood Eipper, who passed on October 20, 2007. She was also preceded in death by her siblings: Marie Schappert, Jean Sperduto, Estelle Saxton, and Vincent Sperduto.

Dottie made her home in Macon County for the past 25 years, having moved from Wilton Manors, Florida. She was a faithful member of St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Franklin, and previously a member of St. Clements Catholic Church in Wilton Manors. Her faith was a guiding light throughout her life.

Above all, Dottie cherished her family. She found immense joy in the lives of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and her love for them was boundless. She is survived by her four children: Donna Valentino (Jonathan London), Susan Courtney, Kathleen Posey, and Donald Eipper (LeAnne); nine grandchildren: David Brent Posey, Jr., Gabrielle Posey, Addisyn Posey, Kylie Filler (Justin), Marley Wissner, Christine Albritton, Donald Courtney, Eliana Eipper, and Jack Patrick Eipper; and five great-grandchildren: Madeline Taylor, Harper Taylor, Lucas Albritton, Daisy Courtney, and Jemma Courtney.

A Funeral Mass will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Franklin, where family and friends will gather to honor Dottie's life, her faith, and the love she so generously gave.

Though she is no longer with us, Dottie's memory will live on in the hearts of those she loved and those who loved her. Her legacy of kindness, devotion, and grace will continue to shine brightly.
