Arla M. De Broux (Nee Wittkop)

Mrs. Arla De Broux, of Port Washington, passed away on Monday, October 5, 2020 at her residence surrounded by her loving family. She was 91 years old.
Arla was born on April 19th, 1929 in Hamburg WI, daughter of Carl Wittkop and Eleanora Boelter Wittkop. She graduated from Cedarburg High School with the class of 1947. Arla was united in marriage with Norbert J “DEE BEE” De Broux at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Cedarburg on July 31, 1948. The couple settled in Port Washington and raised their family. Mrs. De Broux and her husband ran Dee Bee’s Service Station at the base of St. Mary’s hill for 50 years. Arla was a member of St. John’s Lutheran Church and the church woman’s guild. She was a member of the Ozaukee County Bowlers Association, holding many league positions including president.

Mrs. De Broux is survived by her four sons: Dennis (Jane) of Brown Deer, James (Linda) of Woodbridge VA, Warren (Mimi) of Molino FL and Doug (Donna Reid) of Sedona, AZ. She is further survived by two grandchildren: Monique (Jet) Carpenter of Bellingham, WA, and Daniel (Karen Roeder) De Broux of Duvall, WA, and great-grandson Dylan De Broux. Other survivors include nieces, nephews, other relatives, and many friends. She is preceded in death by her husband, parents, brothers Raymond and James Wittkop, sisters Anita Grulke and Roselie Gavin.
Due to the current situation with COVID-19, private family services for Arla were held at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Port Washington. She was laid to rest in Union Cemetery next to her husband. The De Broux family is planning on having a public celebration of Arla’s life in the summer of 2021.
In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to St. John’s Lutheran Church.
