Robert Marion Hoopes

He was the stoic yet knowledgeable father of my best friends Joyce and Lora ,and their older brother Elric. He was always trying to advise us on how to go about our most inadvisable endeavors...such as catching black widows and keeping them as pets . His wife and him were very accommodating to my younger brother and I. Being neighbors to him and his family will always remain a bright light in my past.

Love,
Jennifer Ryan
