Patrick Hepfer Obituary
Akron, Michigan
Patrick L. Hepfer, age 63, passed away early Thursday morning, April 10, 2025 at the Bay Medical Care Facility. The son of the late Larry Wm. and Nancy Lee (Wagner) Hepfer, he was born on May 4, 1961 in Bay City. Pat graduated from Reese High School. For most of his life he assisted with the family farm, Wagner Farms in Fairgrove. Pat was a proud member of the NRA and was a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys. He was a congregation member of the Kingdom Hall - Jehovah's Witness in Imlay City and had been a member of the Knights of Columbus Council #3224 in Caro. More than anything Pat enjoyed spending time with his family.
Pat is survived by his sister, Connie Lee McGarry of Akron; his niece, Stacy Lee Knoodle that was his pride and joy; his great-nephew, Bryce Wm. Fitzhenry (Lillian Carsten) and great great-niece, Arianna.
It was Pat's desire for cremation to take place. His family will hold a celebration of his life at a later date. Funeral home arrangements are being provided by Trahan Funeral Chapel.

Pat and I would visit weekly about hunting and enjoying the outdoors. He was always interested in my trips to Idaho to hunt bears. Pat would save his hunting magazines for me and would let me know of good articles. He will be missed. Luke Weber
