Arlyn Popp
May 29, 2017
Our most loving mother and grandmother Arlyn Popp, age 84, of Bonita Springs, FL by the way of Lake Villa, IL has unfortunately left us on May 29, 2017. She was the beloved wife of 64 years to Fred Popp and loving mother to Diane, Fred (Dale), Jerry (Julie) and Debby (Ron) and her 8 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. Our greatest mother, however, won’t be remembered for the metastatic bladder cancer that took her life but for the stories our lives have all come to remember her by… Her love of dancing, which garnished her the nickname “Jitterbug”. Her green thumb and love of nature, evidenced by the beautiful flowers adorning her home. Being a flag bearer for the VFW, to support not only her husband but all veterans. Her open door policy for anyone that needed to talk over a morning pick me up. Her lust for adventure and travel, motor homing for nearly 20 years. Her lead by example approach to inspiring those around her. Her passion for health and fitness, hiking Camelback Mountain at 80 years of age. Her tenderness for all of the grand kids and great grand kids. Her never wanting to say goodbye. Always crying during the happy moments her family and friends bestowed upon her. WE LOVE YOU. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered as the fun, modest, humble, loving and stoic woman who never ceased to amaze us. The immediate family gathered to wish her peace on her journey. In honor of Arlyn, please make donations out to: American Cancer Society Hope Lodge 411 2nd Street NW Rochester, MN 55901
