With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Ann Laundergan Kauppi, a devoted wife, loving mother, and beacon of kindness in our community. She departed on July 11, 2024, and is survived by her husband, Robert (Bob) Kauppi, her sons Craig and Chad Kauppi, and her sister, Gail Coon.
Ann dedicated much of her life to being a school librarian, where her love for books and passion for literature was unparalleled. Beyond her role as a librarian, Ann was the center of love and light in her family, creating a home filled with warmth, kindness, and the ever-present aroma of baked treats.
Connecting with others was of the utmost importance to Ann, and throughout her life she brightened many lives with her heartfelt and handwritten letters of encouragement, wisdom, and love. Ann leaves behind a community forever changed by her spirit. May she rest in eternal peace, surrounded by the stories she cherished and the love she shared with us all.
