On this episode of Mokena's Front Porch we sit down with Mr. David Kropp, who's family history in Mokena goes back almost as long as Mokena! He is grandson to Reverend William "The Builder" Kreis, who is responsible for the building of the historic St. John's Church in Mokena. He is also cousin to Laverne and Edwin Yunker of the McGovney Yunker Farm.
Mr. Kropp talks about Mokena during World War 2, spending time on Yunker Farm and down by the Hickory Creek as a child and so much more. Still today he lives in the home that his family build 100 years ago. As Mr. Kropp approaches 90 adventure filled years, Matt and I thought it would be a good idea to share his thoughts and perspective with the community.
We hope you enjoy this conversation with Mr. David Kropp!
