Not sure what to say?

My sympathies are with the Hopps' family. I met Robert and Mary because Bob offered to help me fund raise for All Saints Foundation with a phone call out of the blue. I visited their home a few times enabling me to get to meet and enjoy Mary. A special couple indeed and they will be truly missed in our community. Pamella Binder (Bay City, MI)

Kathy, I remember your Mom, especially her smile. Sorry for your loss...

I was sorry to hear of Mary passing. Wish I could have came but due to health issues I can't make it. She was a pleasure to care for and she will be greatly missed.

Deepest condolences. I was one of Craig's classmates. Reading this makes me remember your family so clearly (as you were in the mid 1960's). Everyone knew you were a special group of people. All my best.

My deepest sympathy to the whole Hopps family. I believe as she took her last breath on this Earth she took her first breath with Jesus in Heaven and Bob met her there and took her hand and they danced again.

You are in my prayers. May your memories
of her love be with you in the coming days.

Bob, Scott and I will miss seeing Mary at gatherings. She was the most loving lady and she treasured her family. In this day and age, it is a rarity to see the kind of close-knit family like yours. It was an honor and a privilege to have her tell me that I was like a "third daughter" to her. May her loving, inclusive spirit live forever in our hearts.

I will be forever grateful for the 80 years of love and caring my wonderful Aunt Mania gave me, her nephew Tomulku.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
