Mr. Delmar Lee Pieper, 87, passed away on July 5, 2025, in Tacoma, Washington. Born on May 18, 1938, in Rockford, Illinois, Delmar lived a full and meaningful life marked by dedication to family, service to his country, and a deep appreciation of the natural world.
Delmar proudly served in the Wisconsin National Guard and was called to Washington during the Berlin Wall Crisis in 1961. His commitment to duty reflected a lifelong sense of responsibility and patriotism that remained with him throughout his years.
He had a passion for landscape and nature photography, and particularly enjoyed exploring the area around Mt. Rainier. Delmar also found great joy in restoring and repairing antique automobiles.
Delmar is survived by his beloved wife, Mary; sons Joe(Deanna) and Kevin(Jocelyn); granddaughters Hannah (Simon) and Abby; grandsons Jeffrey, Jacob, and Jackson; sister Ronette; and brothers Jim and Dale. He was preceded in death by his parents, Melvin and Fern, his sister Patricia and brothers Daryl and John.
