Fredrick David Koupal was born on August 23, 1941 to Laddie L. and Rose (Rezac) Koupal in Wagner, South Dakota. He graduated from Wagner High School in 1959 and earned a degree in Industrial Arts Education in 1965 from Southern State College. He was a member of the Wagner National Guard unit from 1960 to 1966. Fred was united in marriage to Thelma Cudley on August 21, 1965 in Dante. Fred taught Industrial Arts in Howard for two years and in White for one year, then moved his family to Tyndall where he sold Moorman's Feed. In 1983, Fred started The Ole Bull Shed, which he owned and operated until 2004. Fred loved music and played in several bands, including his own "Freddie's Combo." He was a member of the Tyndall Accordion Club and was the proud "senior" member of the Bon Homme High School Bohemian Band. He and Thelma taught dance lessons for many years, and he also enjoyed playing cards, especially pinochle. Fred could fix anything, and enjoyed restoring antique Model A cars, which they took on trips across the U.S. with other Model A enthusiasts. He had served on the Tyndall City Council and was a member of the Czech Heritage Society. Fred's final evening was spent playing his accordion at a polka mass at St. Wenceslaus Catholic Church and also at Beseda Hall in Tabor - doing his favorite thing in the company of family and friends. He died on Saturday, February 2, 2008 at Avera Sacred Heart Hospital in Yankton at the age of 66 years, 5 months and 9 days.

Grateful to have shared Fred's life are his wife, Thelma, of Tyndall; daughter Sandy (Mike) Slama of Tabor; son Keith (Tammy) Koupal of Kearney, Nebraska; six grandchildren: Ashley, Mallory, Laura, Joey, Dante and Medora; one sister, Edie (Joe) Sadler of Brandon; and mother-in-law Rose Cudley of Tyndall.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Laddie L. and Rose Koupal, and his father-in-law, Adolph Cudley.

The family would like memorials to be directed to the Bon Homme High School Bohemian Band for the promotion of the accordion and our Czech music.
