Left to cherish his memory are his children, Robbin Krotzer and Kasey Krotzer; grandson, Jakob Bash; sisters-in-law, Cathy Krotzer and Lupe Krotzer; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Wayne and Alvina; as well as his siblings, Dale Krotzer, Lynn Krotzer, Tom (Julie) Krotzer, Keith Krotzer, and Kris Krotzer.

My late husband John, always had funny stories to tell about Tippy when they golfed in the Sycamore league. He has left family and friends so many memories to cherish. Sincere Sympathy,
