To the Kleper Family

I recently learned that Dennis had passed. I knew Dennis when I was practicing law in Chicago. I did not see much of Dennis after 1999 when I was working in the Cook County State's Attorney's Office. I fondly remember Dennis as a man who was dedicated to his profession and Jewish causes and as a devoted family man. I always enjoyed talking to Dennis and he was quite funny.

My condolences to the Kleper family.

His memory be eternal.

Goodbye Dennis and God Be with You always



Rest in Peace

To The Dennis Klepper Family

I was saddened to hear about the passing of Dennis. I knew Dennis as a colleague in the legal profession. Dennis was dedicated to the practice of law and serving his clients as well as numerous bar and civic organizations. Dennis was a consummate professional. I know that he had transitioned from the legal profession to other areas later in his career. His memory be eternal and my condolences and sympathies to his family.

When Dennis entered a room, the "Wisdom Quotient tripled". Soon a huge smile emerges with a well thought out story, insight or Joke to follow.
You and Ann Louise are in our thoughts and hearts. "Happy Trails" old friend.
