Victor Edward Epple

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Victor Edward Epple, who joined his Lord and Savior on the evening of November 14, 2024, at the age of 90. Born in Tell City, Indiana, on July 14, 1934, he grew up on the family farm in southern Indiana, where he developed a strong work ethic and deep appreciation for family.

After graduating from Tell City High School, Victor served his country by joining the United States Air Force in August 1956. He was proud to be part of peacekeeping efforts during the closing stages of the Korean War. Following four years of dedicated service, he transitioned to Civil Service at Robins Air Force Base, where he worked in electronics for over thirty years before retiring.

In addition to his work at the Air Force Base, Victor founded and managed Robins Travel Park in Byron, Georgia, which he owned until 1996. His entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to service were evident in all his endeavors.

A devoted family man, Victor cherished spending time with his loved ones and enjoyed traveling whenever possible. He was a faithful member of Gilead Baptist Church for 59 years, where he actively participated in the community.

Victor was preceded in death by his parents, William and Ella Epple; sisters, Alberta Epple and Edith Latta; brothers, Floyd Epple and Harold Epple; and daughter, Rita Epple. 

His memory will forever be treasured by his children, Greg Epple (Audrey), Donna Ereddia (Joe), Janet Faglie (Hank); grandchildren, Zoe Hammond (Logan), Spencer Ereddia (Tina), Pierce Ereddia, Trey Faglie and Adam Faglie; great-granddaughter, Brooke Nolin; and a host of nieces and nephews.
