Kenneth Mark Pieper

Kenneth Mark Pieper, 70, of Terryville, husband of Deborah (Shugrue) Pieper, passed away Saturday, August 16, 2025, while surrounded by family at Bristol Hospital. He was born on October 13, 1954, in Hartford and grew up in Bloomfield. He was the only son of the late Herman and Marie Simone (Fournier) Pieper.

Prior to his retirement, Kenny was employed by Otis Elevater in Farmington, as a Customer Service Supervisor. He was a quiet man but always had a good “dad joke” up his sleeve. He enjoyed history, Vikings and his Danish heritage. He was an avid collector of early American roadside memorabilia, wild boar trinkets and loved watching classic movies and cartoons. Kenny loved to garden and make turkey soup, tomato sauce, and his famous zucchini relish. He loved his cats, his family and especially his grandchildren.

Besides his wife, Debbie, of 42 years, Kenny leaves behind his son, Jack (Pieper) Shanahan of Terryville; his daughter Carolyn Pieper and her partner Nicholas Dixey of Winsted; his beloved grandchildren, Miles and Hazel Dixey; his sister-in-law Pamela Bochicchio and her husband Bill of Watertown; his niece Beverly Chang and her husband Hyunjin of Burlington; his nephew Eric Strassner and his wife Jackie of Idaho; several great-nieces and great-nephews; and best friend John Burns of West Hartford.
