Carey Vincent Hopkins

Belva, I can't believe so many years have gone by since his passing. He was such a great brother to me and I will always think warmly of him throughout my years, Pray you are doing well!

Always enjoyed Carey's great sense of humor at our Class of '61 lunches in Lake Oswego. He was a good friend.... and enjoyed life, See ya sometime ol' friend. Ralph

Dear Belva and Family, You don't know me, but I was a classmate of your husband's many years ago. We graduated in 1961; sadly, just as your husband of 43 years (same number of happily married years with us and I just cannot imagine losing mine) has passed from this life to eternal life, we are all right behind Carey - give or take a few years or weeks or days or even hours. God bless you and my prayer is He will comfort you in this time of deep sorrow. I truly wish that I had a magic...

Dear Belva, I was privileged to have such a wonderful stepbrother in my life. I know my mother and Chuck are with Carey now and they will continue to always be with us in our hearts. Thank you for your strength in loving and caring for Carey. Love to you and all your family.

A truly gracious, kind man of many talents who readily shared himself and home with so many to encourage fun and friendship! Good to have spent time - but way too little - in his presence enjoying his wit, humor and joyful emails. And, "Thank you" Belva!

I am really sorry to hear of the loss of Carey. I was honored to become his friend after meeting him & finding out he was my high school classmate. He always had a positive attitude despite his condition. See ya later Carey!

A good man has left us.

I am sorry for your loss. May prayer comfort you.

1 Thessalonians 5:17 "Pray constantly."

"It was on the mourn
I saw a ship a sailing
The sea was calm
Carey was at the rail."
