Marcia Anne Kuypers went to be with our lord on April 14, 2025. Prayers for perpetual light upon her and final peace in Christ.

Marcia was born on April 16, 1937, the daughter of Mark and Anne C. (Brunner) Loush. Marcia was raised in Grosse Pointe Woods. Marcia met the "True Love" of her life (in her words) William Theodore Kuypers. The two were married on December 26, 1959. They had 60 God blessed years of marriage. Marcia and Bill lived their lifetime of marriage in Grosse Pointe Shores. They worshiped at St. Paul on the lake.

Marcia was a school teacher and then became a social worker for the state of Michigan. Marcia volunteered for many organizations. She also belonged to many women's clubs. Marcia and Bill belonged to the Nomads and traveled the world during their lifetime together. Marcia did so many wonderful acts of kindness in her lifetime. She loved to entertain and was a pro at that. She definitely gained her angel wings at her time of passing.

She is survived by nephew, Thomas (LuAnn) Johnstone of Houghton Lake; cousin, Barbara Davis of Grosse Pointe Woods; along with many nieces and nephews.

Marcia is preceded in death by her husband, William Kuypers; parents, Mark and Anne Loush; her in-laws, Theodore and Agnes Kuypers; brother-in-law, Richard Kuypers; aunt, Mary Davis "Aunt Babe"; sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Yvonne and Warren Daubenspeck; and her grandparents.

Marcia will be laid to rest at Great Lakes National Cemetery in Holly, Michigan.

Contributions in Marcia's honor can be made to St. Paul on the Lake in Grosse Pointe Shores, Michigan.
