Troy Gene Lepien

I was at the memorial service for Troy with a few others who worked with him at WPS decades ago. A time when Troy and Tanja were dating. We all knew she was the one for Troy. It was fun being part of the friend group for their courtship and wedding. Great being Troy’s friend at work. Great memories of our lives then. Troy was so impressive with his values and resulting goals and priorities. Family, helping others in his orbit and career (to ensure best for family). It was no surprise to me that he conquered the lifestyle changes required to ensure his good health. He was strong, motivated for those he loved and true to himself. That’s how I will always remember Troy. Condolences Lepien family and all friends.

I got to know Troy through an ongoing project this past year, and deeply appreciated his thoughtfulness, consideration for others and calm presence. I will never forget when he stepped out of a virtual meeting and came back beaming with pride over his daughter's recent/education professional accomplishments. His love for his family was evident.

I am shocked and saddened at the news of Troy's passing. He was a very supportive dad and always made himself avbailable to help at meets held here when his daughter was on our gymnastics team. From all of us at Gymfinity, our hearts go out to Tonja, Sophie, and Aiden. We are so sorry for your loss.

My condolences to Tonja and Troy’s kids and family. I first met Troy as far back as kindergarten. We played soccer together in high school and were roommates in college. Such a great guy. Aloha ‘oe, Troy.

I don’t know Mr. Gene Lepien personally. I do know his wife Tonja. She worked at the Verona Public Library when I use to go there a lot. I just want to say. I am so sorry Tonja for your loss. Derek
