Arie A. Heykoop III  “Adrian” age 51 died on Sunday, November 21, 2010 at his home in Bloomfield.  His passing was quite sudden and unexpected.

He was born in Pompton Plains and lived his formative years in Montville. As an adult he first lived in Little Falls before moving to Bloomfield, where he resided for over twenty years.

Arie received his formal education at Cedar Hill Grammar School in Towaco and at Montville High School graduating with the Class of 1977.

His first experience in work was at Vibra Screw Company in Totowa as a laboratory technician, and for more than twenty years at  Pallmann Pulverizers Company in Clifton as a specialist in plastic recycling.

Arie had a private, quiet, kind, and generous personality.  He especially enjoyed family gatherings.

His favorite pastimes included chess and both salt and fresh water fishing.   He also enjoyed having tropical fish tanks in his home.

Surviving to mourn his loss are his parents Arie and Rina Heykoop of Montville and four sisters including Nellie Van Grouw and her husband Bill of Blairstown, Cornelia Vlietstra and her husband David of Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, Helen Ruby and her husband Shawn of Towaco and JoAnn Baum and her husband Allan of Oak Ridge; nieces and nephews including Kristen Berkenbush and her husband Dave, Peter Van Grouw and his wife Sadie, Susan Van Vugt and her husband Tom, Leah Koppelaar and her husband Nathan, Nathaniel Vlietstra and his wife Nadia, Timothy, Kathryn, Karalyn, Heidi, Mark, Mary Beth, Amber, Heather and Cynthia Vlietstra,  Melissa, Samantha and Natalie Ruby, Allan Jay III, Alicia, Jeremy, Alaina and Julie Baum.
