Pamela "Pam" Arlene Lepp, 81, passed away March 22, 2025, peacefully in Ridgecrest, CA, surrounded by family. She was born May 5, 1943, in Livonia, MI to Robert Eugene Tannehill and Ruth Maxine Tannehill.
Pam was preceded in death by her husband of 56 years, Dennis S. Lepp. She is survived by her children, Jeffrey (Marilyn) Lepp of Monroeville, IN; Cynthia (Modesto) Gomez of Visalia, CA; Candace Lepp Henkle of Decatur, IN and Jennifer (Keith) Pettibone of Bella Vista, AR, along with nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
Pam was a member of Beta Sigma Phi non-collegiate sorority for over 50 years, serving multiple roles in her chapters. She was blessed with the gift of hospitality. She took great delight in event planning and social gatherings. She had a knack for business and an entrepreneurial mind. A few of her endeavors included realty, small business ownership, and a keen eye for the best deal in town. She had a wonderful witty sense of humor and faithfully delivered one liners and zingers without rest. She was beloved by many.
Pam will be missed by her family and friends. A service will be held to celebrate Pam's life on April 5, 2025, in Ridgecrest CA and a graveside service for the family will be held on June 28, 2025, in Monett, MO.
