Kenneth P. Gipe, II

Kenneth P. Gipe, II, 53, of Palmyra, passed away unexpectedly at his home on Sunday, October 19, 2025. Born in Lebanon, he was the son of the late Kenneth P. and Dianne (Light) Gipe.

Ken is survived by his devoted wife of 29 years, Jeanine A. (Bjorkstedt) Gipe. Also, by his son, Kenneth P. Gipe, III, & wife Raelynn (Hockenbrocht) Gipe, and the newest light in his life, his granddaughter Freyia Quinn Gipe.

Ken lived life to the fullest and had many passions. He enjoyed bowling, RVing and camping, classic cars, and following NASCAR and World of Outlaws sprint car racing. A lifelong Miami Dolphins fan, Ken rarely missed a game.

Known for his generous heart and selfless spirit, Ken was always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need – no matter what the cost or inconvenience to himself. His kindness and humor left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.

A Celebration of Life will be held on November 2, 2025 from 1:00pm-4:00pm at St. Gertrude’s Catering, 302 E. Lehman St., Lebanon, PA 17046. A second gathering of family and friends will be announced at a later date.
