Donald E Kopinski was born in St. Paul Minnesota on January 1, 1938 to Mr. and Mrs. Harry R Kopinski. Our father was a very energetic man and a very high achiever. He loved sports such as, fishing, car racing, working on vehicles, football Vikings and O.U. Sooners.
Our father came from a very poor family and was determined to make something of himself. Our father was a Vietnam Veteran who served our country as a Master Sergeant in the U.S. Army for 28 honorable years. Later in his life he worked for American Airlines as a AMT Crew Chief. Our father was very dedicated to his jobs throughout his career.
Message from his wife:
For me to have met my husband was a very beautiful experience. All these years we have shared will be something I will never forget. I thank God for bringing him into my life and I will always have him in my heart.
