Maria Claire Hooker

Maria,
From the very first day I met you you were such a bright light and inspiration. You have over come so much during your lifetime and you make me want to be a better person. I will always see your smile, remember your laugh and all the nick names you would come up with for people. You truly are an angel! I am more than blessed to have had shared time with you and to call you my friend. I look forward to seeing you again my sweet friend!

Paul, Your Mom is another beautiful angel in heaven, as she was here on earth!
She helped a lot of people struggling with addiction. I worked with her at ADS in 2007.
May Jesus wrap his arms around you.
My condolences,
Gail Chadwell

You were always a mom to me when I didn't have my own. You made sure I was always ok just like a mother should.
You raised the best longtime friend I could have ever asked for all on your own ... as well as the rest of your sons friends around you . The Little things you did . Your smile, your cooking, your gracious spirit and your loving heart will live on forever in mine .
I love you mamabear.
