Arline Gertrude Koepp was born on July 16, 1931 to Martha and Henry Koepp in St. Cloud, Minnesota. She graduated with high honors from Mora High School. She married Almer Mans on May 1, 1954 in a spring snowstorm. They moved to a farm west of Hinckley and finally to the Mans homestead farm where they raised their four children, Wayne, Renee, Janet and Jerry.
You’re ‘dog gone right’ Arline was a hard worker. She enjoyed gardening, old time music, polka, and embroidery, and though being a mother, a farm wife and a homemaker kept her busy, church came first on Sunday mornings.
Most of all Arline treasured her family. She loved family get togethers. Birthdays, anniver-saries and holidays were always filled with family, friends and laughter. Always willing to brag about her grandchildren, Arline clipped newspapers and dis-played photos proudly. She was very close to her sister Eleanor.
Arline suffered her first stroke in the fall of 1988. She worked hard to recover well enough to drive a car, care for her home, and keep up with correspondences - Arline was a notorious pen pal.
On March 19, 2000 Arline suffered another severe stroke, leaving her unable to swallow or communicate.
On March 23, 2000, after being transferred from Mora hospital to Abbott Northwestern, the family found her living will which stated she did not wish to be hooked up to any tubes or machines and Arline was brought home to her daughter Janet’s house in Pine City.
Arline worked very hard to get her living will in order, it was both a relief and a comfort to her children and grandchildren reading the words she wrote:
“I am not afraid of death, I want to meet my savior and meet my mother for the first time.”
The last week of her life she spent peacefully, surrounded by her family and friends, reading stories and looking through old photo albums. Polka music played softly in the background. Always the caring mother, she let us know that she loved us even though she could not speak. It was a special time, bringing the family together. Both she and the family would like to thank everyone who sent their prayers, well wishes, visits, flowers and food. Making this difficult time very special.
Arline was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Martha Koepp, her sister, LaVerna and her brother, Elmer.
