Cepuch, William "Skip" Ellis
Rochester/Gates: August 29, 2010, age 82. Predeceased by his wife, Mary J. (Kessler) Cepuch; his parents, Andrew and Frances (Baube) Cepuch; his brother, Robert Andrew Cepuch. Survived by his children from a previous marriage: son Randy Cepuch and daughter LaDonna Court, plus grandchild Jennifer (Court) Woodford. Also survived by his wife's children, Sharon (Jerry) Ernst and George (Lynn) Kessler, plus her six grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
Private services will be held at the convenience of the family.
The survivors would like to express their gratitude to Skip's neighbor and caretaker, Olivia Ward, for the outstanding friendship and care she provided.
Born on September 15, 1927, Skip grew up in Seneca Falls, New York. He served as a radar man in the US Navy in 1947 and 1948 and sailed around the world aboard the USS Lloyd Thomas. He worked at Eastman Kodak for 30 years, making film emulsion at Kodak Park. After retiring, he and his wife split their time between the Rochester area and Fort Pierce, Florida. Each summer for more than six decades, he spent at least one week at Boy Scout Camp Babcock Hovey, near Ovid, New York. One of Skip's proudest accomplishments was receiving lifetime membership in the prestigious "Order of the Arrow," in recognition of his distinguished service as a Scout leader. He was a lifelong fan of the Brooklyn Dodgers, even after they moved to Los Angeles. His interests also included golf, the stock market, crossword puzzles and chess.
