Radine V. Pepper, a longtime Denver resident, passed away Dec. 28, 2010, in Denver. Rabbis Selwyn Franklin, Joe Black and David Meyer, her son-in-law, officiated at the Dec. 31 service at BMH-BJ. Interment followed at Mt. Nebo Cemetery. Feldman Mortuary made the arrangements.
Devoted to her family and friends, she had an endearing sense of humor, the family said.
Radine Veta was born May 11, 1927, in Cheyenne, Wyo. She graduated Cheyenne High School and attended the University of Nebraska for one year.
She married Morton L. Pepper on Sept. 7, 1947, and the couple moved to Denver.
Mr. Pepper passed away on Sept. 20, 1988.
A homemaker while her children were young, Mrs. Pepper later worked at Donnas Childrens Shop and La Boutique.
Active in CARIH (now National Jewish Health) and a life member of Hadassah, she volunteered at the Rose Medical Center gift shop.
