If you are reading this, I'm dead because colon cancer kicked my butt. I am survived by my beautiful trophy wife, Rebecca (nee Conlin). Thank you for the best 12 years of my life. My son Alex. With him I am well pleased. His lovely wife Laura and their little dog Millie. Also surviving are my sister, Marilyn, brother-in-law, Howard, sisters-in-law Kim and Katy, and cousins Mike, Marlene, and Carol. I am predeceased by my sister Karen and my parents J. Robert Kopp and Dorothy E. "Dottie" Kopp. I am also survived by a boat load of nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews – too numerous to mention here. (Like I could remember all their names anyway.) Anonymity also gives them plausible deniability that they were ever related to me. Manheim Township High School 1973. Franklin & Marshall College 1977. Graduate work St. John's University. 35 years in the import/export business in New Jersey. Baseball fan. Yada, yada, yada. Thanks to my buddies Ralph and Shabby. I appreciated you guys keeping up the comedy. Since moving back to Lancaster 4 years ago, I have been a member in various degrees of good standing at St. Mark's United Methodist Church in Mt. Joy. My thanks to the Friendship Sunday School class and the Men's Ministry. Your love, support, and prayers have sustained me. Special thank you to Pastor Sean Rajnic. You've been my rock. I love you, man. A service will be held for me on Saturday, January 27th at Charles F. Snyder Funeral Home at 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz, PA 17543. Visit with the family at 10AM with a service to follow at 11AM. Then, this summer I invite you to a great big picnic party to celebrate and keep the comedy going. In lieu of flowers, please send memorial contributions to my good friends at Hospice and Community Care at 685 Good Drive, Box 4125, Lancaster, PA 17604.
