Leonard "Kipper" Charles Hopp was born January 2, 1979 in Minneapolis, MN, the son of Leonard Quaderer and Delores Gougé. Kip was a one of a kind man, once you met him, you were amazed. He was very smart, funny and had a heart that was as big as he was. Kip had a strong love for his very large family which included seven siblings, lots of aunties, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews. He was born into this world as his mother's first born son. They had a very special close bond. Kip really enjoyed cooking, food shows, and dining out. He was a great cook. He also spent his time watching his favorite shows on his prized giant TV, playing casino and slot games and gambling at the casino, and also studied the political sciences and science topics such as Outer Space. Kip was a firm believer and supporter of Bernie Sanders. He had a special soft spot for pets and animals. May he continue to rock out to some awesome tune and be in peace for all eternity. Kip was a wonderful son, brother, uncle and friend to so many and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Much Love and Respect, your family.
