Obituary for John Warren Kopp
Marlborough, MA
John Warren Kopp, 82, of Marlborough, MA, formerly of Maynard, MA, died on Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2020. He was the beloved husband of the late Barbara (Wilson Kopp).
John was born and raised in Maynard, son of the late John and Elizabeth May (Malcolm) Kopp. He attended local schools and was a graduate of Maynard H.S. He was employed as a machinist for many years until his retirement after spending 30 plus years at J. Kittredge & Sons of Marlborough and Hudson.

John leaves his daughter Debora McLatchy of Ayer, MA; his son John Warren Kopp Jr. and wife Tonette of Elgin, OK; his twin brother James O. Kopp of Marlborough, MA and sister Carol A.

John truly enjoyed working, beginning in his teenage years picking apples at local orchards which he continued and enjoyed for many years. Next to his family his passion was fishing. He spent much of his free time visiting local lakes fishing with friends and always looked forward to Salmon fishing trips in New York. He will be greatly missed but never forgotten.
