Lisa Koeppen

Lisa L. Koeppen of Grafton passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, March 15, 2022. She was 62 years old.

Lisa was born on Aug. 12, 1959, in Hartford, Connecticut to Norman and Marcia (Burke) Christensen.

Lisa grew up in Mequon, Wis., graduated from Homestead High School in 1977 and attended the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, where she met her future husband.

She was united in marriage with Gregg Koeppen in Fox Point, Wis., on Aug. 16, 1980. They resided in Grafton for the past 39 years.

She truly loved children throughout all her years in Grafton. They were the flickering light in her life as she day cared numerous children from her home.

Also, she was passionately committed to using her time and faith to mentor, care for, sympathize with, offer encouragement and just be a voice and ears to help people near and far from her in some way.

Lisa is survived by her loving husband of 41 years Gregg; children Jaime (Jon) Lubner and Lauren (Steve) Navarro; grandchildren Ellie, Jack and Harrison; her parents; sisters Beth (Scott) Propp, Carol (Rudy) Paul and Sara (Andrew) Cramer; her mother-in-law JoAnne; other family members; and friends.

Lisa was preceded in death by her father-in-law Glenroy.
