Historical Preservationists
CRHS wants to recognize those who have spent a considerable amount of time and energy working to preserve the historical treasures of this region and the cultural heritage of those who came before. This page is dedicated to those historical preservationists (living or deceased) who have given so much to the Clarksville region.
Hal Erpenbeck - It is with great regret that we inform you of the passing away of friend and cofounder Hal Erpenbeck on October 8, 2018, at the age of 78.
Hal came to El Dorado Hills in 2003 with his wife Barbara after a busy and successful management career with several well known high tech companies in the Bay Area. After his retirement, he brought to the local community all of his energy and intelligence.
Hal was a Founding Member of the Clarksville Region Historical Society. He was a Board member from 2006 through 2017, holding the office of Vice President for one year and President for eight years. Hal was also the Web Master for CRHS's web site until recently and for many years provided audio-visual support for the Society's monthly meetings. Hal was a member of the Board of the Bass Lake Action Committee from 2006 through 2016, during which time he held the offices of Director and Secretary. Hal 's commitment to making his neighborhood the best it could be spurred him to be a volunteer for many years on the Citizens Advisory Committee of the El Dorado Hills Community Service District, which helped the EDH CSD administer Woodridge's CC&R's.
Hal's friendly personality and varied interests made him many friends and drew him to participate in a wide range of activities such as acting as a docent at Marshall Gold Discovery Park; joining the last El Dorado Hills cityhood effort; representing El Dorado County residents on the Commission on Aging and the El Dorado County Grand Jury; being an active Elks Club members and participating in a neighborhood wine club. His outstanding service to the community was recognized in 2017 when Hal received a Commendation from the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors.
Hal is survived by his wife Barbara, his two sons, Doug and Mark Erpenbeck, his granddaughters Kayla and Kendall, his daughter-in-law Kristi, and his sister-in-law Anita Quick.
A memorial service in Hal's honor was held on Sunday, October 21, 2018, at the Cielo Winery in Shingle Springs. Among the speakers at the service were John Hidahl, El Dorado County District 1 Supervisor, and Mike Roberts, a CRHS member. Over one hundred people assembled to honor Hal's memory.
Hal's wife Barbara has suggested that anyone wishing to honor Hal's memory should make a donation to the Clarksville Region Historical Society.
