Obituary for John Michael Schopf

John Michael Schopf, age 68, passed away January 30, 2022 after a 20-year courageous battle with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and complications from Pneumonia.

John was born and raised in Robbinsdale, MN. John's first job was Broadway Pizza which he still loved.

John went on to work at Tennant Company for almost 43 years where he met his wife Pam and shared many good times and memories. They recently celebrated their 40th Anniversary.

John enjoyed music, boating, bowling, gardening, biking, golf and feeding the birds. He was very proud of the many projects he accomplished while living in his home in Maple Grove since 1980: finishing the basement, adding a 4 season porch, painting, and making the garage his man cave.

Preceded in death by parents. George & Phyllis and sister, Jeanie.

Survived by his wife of 40 years, Pam; children, Darcy (Tom) Kohman and Andy Schopf; granddaughter, Reese; brother, Richard (Judy) Schopf; sister, Barb O’Hara; nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends; and his best buddy, Frankie his cat. He will be missed dearly by all who knew him and got to know his sense of humor and kind heart.

I'm sure John is in heaven rocking to the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd or any rock and roll band.

Evans-Nordby funeral chapel in Osseo, MN handled my husband’s cremation and Celebration of Life service in July of 2023. I can’t say enough positive things about all aspects of my interactions with them. They reached out to help every step of the way—from planning the Celebration of Life service, the service itself, and after care contact. Brittney was the person I primarily worked with. She was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, organized, and had great communication skills, which greatly helped in reducing my stress level. I plan to contact Evans-Nordby soon to pre-plan my own final arrangements.
