I've lived beside of Mr. & Mrs. Hopper my whole life almost. I remember when we bought the house beside of them. We were really little and were nervous about moving in and making new friends. They made us feel right at home and every once in a while Mrs. Hopper would bring us over cookies or call us over to get some. We fell in love with the Hoppers. Mrs. Hopper would always have kind words for me growing up and then for my kids when they came along, even though I'm positive we all found a way to drive them both crazy! Now we have her loving daughter to drive crazy in her honor! She was an amazing woman and will be missed. My heart and prayers go out to her family. She is with her husband now and traveling those golden roads together. I sure hope they have bowling in Heaven just for them!
