Not sure what to say?

Mr Hopkinson was my teacher at Hempfield in 1977. He instilled in me a love of History and was one of my favorite teachers ever. He gave me insight into how I leaned once and it changed me (for the better) and prepared me to be a much better student. I never ever forgot him and often thought of his kind words. My deepest sympathy to your family for your loss. He truly made a difference!

Our sympathy to you Mrs. Hopkinson and family.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I lived two houses from Bobby on the hill in Herminie No. 2 when I was young. He was one of my Driver's Ed teachers at summer school in 1967 (I think) at Hempfield. My dad was friends with his parents, Sam and Bessie, as well as his brother Leslie, both WWII veterans. Rest In Peace Bobby Hopkinson.
