Mr. Koepp was a devoted husband and father. He was a very hard worker and always strived for perfection.

He especially appreciated a beautiful field of corn, a good herd of dairy cattle and a well kept farm.
He loved to play cards, socialize with his many friends and enjoyed a good joke. His many stories and memories of western Hennepin County will be missed.
He had good, simple words of wisdom based on the Bible and never compromised his beliefs. Clarence always had a good joke in reserve for people, and people appreciated his wit and humor. His sharp mind worked like a human calculator. Even though he only had an eighth grade education, in six years in a little country schoolhouse, Clarence could figure an amortization table in his head and come very close to the exact monthly payment. He remembered phone numbers and dates until the end.
