Every time I saw Mr. Hopkins he was the nicest man, with a twinkle in his eyes and a little smirk on his face. I always expected something funny or profound to come out of his mouth. His love for his wife and family was obvious and you knew he was proud of the legacy he has left. He was a man of few words, but you listened when he spoke. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Rest easy Mr. Hopkins and may Gods loving arms welcome you with warmth, love and peace.

Sincerely,
Sparky and Karen Hively
