Elaine M. Lepape, of Stockton, passed away from a short illness on Oct. 26, 2021. She was born to Carrie and Leonard Lepape, of Sonora, on Nov. 1, 1926. She was preceded in death by her parents, along with three brothers and one sister, Russell Lepape, Harry Lepape, Andrew Lepape and Delphine Maples.

She is survived by nephews Andrew Sibert, of Long Beach, Ted Sibert, of Petaluma, Russell Lepape, of San Jose and David Lepape, of Sonora; and a niece, Deborah Kirchhoff, of Modesto.

Elaine is being remembered for her bubbly personality, her dry humor, and no one is her enemy attitude. Elaine loved music, especially Christmas melodies and songs, humming and singing to them. She loved dances and gatherings of her fellow friends at Golden Age senior daycare center. She participated in the Special Olympics in which she excelled at skiing and enjoyed track and field. One of her favorite activities was gambling at Black Oak Casino and traveling by plane. She is a great angel in heaven and will be greatly missed.

A graveside service will be held Nov. 6, 2021, at Mountain Shadow Cemetery. For further details, contact Terzich and Wilson Funeral Home at (209) 532-3131.
