After the passing of my father, Robert "Dr. Bob" Zepecki, we organized a "Celebration of Life" event that is open to the public (both humans and leashed canines) at Lake Cortez Pavilion from 4pm-10pm on Saturday, September 20th. My sister and my father's clinic manager (and close friend), both of whom I know to be excellent cooks, are very excited to provide high quality food for everyone. However, to our pleasant surprise, the expected turnout has risen to a level that has made funding for groceries a significant financial challenge, particularly due to the fact that this event is funded entirely by myself and a few close family and friends.

In order to put forth our best culinary efforts, I decided to create this gofundme in an attempt to reduce a bit of the financial challenges we are now facing. In my Polish family, copious amounts of home-cooked food was of the utmost importance at events like this, and I know my father would want everyone to go home with full bellies and perhaps even leftovers.

Any donation amount will be greatly appreciated, and even if you cannot donate, i would be grateful if you could share the link and/or spread the word.

I hope to see you and your dogs there on Saturday!

Sincerely,

John Paul Zepecki
