My sincere condolences to the Hopkins family. Although I never met Kennth Sr., I have been working side by side with his son, Kenneth Jr., for the past ten years. I have come to know of Kenn's love for his family through the many conversations we have had. I have always sensed that Kenn's keen love of education and the arts were instilled by his parents. That love has truly touched so many young people!!

Learned of "Hoppy's" passing from other classmates of LaVega via the Internet. He always had a place in our hearts and always will.

I know it wasn't easy raising an independent, red-headed daughter. I will never forget the one and only spanking you had to give me - for the lesson was learned and the behavior never repeated. The time you asked me to play catch and my thought of needing to go easy on you was quickly turned from the stinging/numbing sensation felt in my hand. Thank you for reassuring me as a teenager by telling me, "You do not look fat in your bathing suit". I will miss the many phone calls just to ask,...
