James Harry Klopp, 83, of Glencoe

James Klopp

James “Jim” Klopp, 83, of Glencoe, died Wednesday, July 27, 2016, at his home. A private graveside service was held in the Glencoe City Cemetery.
James Harry Klopp was born Nov. 5, 1932, in Fairmont, the son of Harry and Elizabeth (Schultz) Klopp. He was educated in Fairmont, and enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1954, serving his country in Germany.
On April 19, 1953, he was united in marriage to Mary Daleske at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Ceylon. The couple was blessed with two sons, Otto and David, and shared over 63 years of marriage. The couple lived in the communities of Ceylon, Blue Earth, Brownton and settled in Glencoe.
While serving in the Army, Mr. Klopp began to work as a mechanic and never stopped. After returning, he worked at Standard Oil, Harpel Brothers, the Ford garage, Seneca, Forest Tine Products and Lemke Welding. His love of cars and motors was evident not only at work but at home; he always had a motor that he was working on in the driveway, or another vehicle needing painting.
He is survived by his wife, Mary Klopp of Glencoe; sons, Otto (Patti) Klopp of Glencoe and David (Robin) Klopp of Hutchinson; grandchildren, Crystal Gwynn of Hutchinson, Trevor Klopp of Minneapolis and Logan Klopp of Hutchinson; brother, Allen Klopp of Fairmont; sister-in-law, Delores Daleske of Trimont; brother-in-law, Martin Rettig of Alexandria; and nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Harry and Elizabeth Klopp; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Otto and Edna Daleske; siblings, Bob, Ray, Gert, Clara Mae and Helen Jean; brother-in-law, Karl Daleske; and sister-in-law, Lucille Rettig.
Arrangements were with the Johnson-McBride Funeral Chapel in Glencoe. Online obituaries and guest book are available at www.hantge.com.
