Mary Hopper passed away on September 22, 2021, after losing her battle with colon cancer. She was 65 years old.

Mary was born to Roberta Pospisil (Hopper) and Donald Hopper in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She went to school in Florida where met her first husband, Danny and had two daughters, April and Summer.

Mary loved to crochet and made several things for her family over the years, including baby blankets for most of her grandchildren. She was also an avid yard saler and would pick up trinkets, always finding a place for them.
