To the Hopper families – my sincerest condolences. No matter the age of our parents or our own ages, the loss of a mother is life-altering. May your good memories sustain you as time goes on. Harpurhey and Hopper just went together for me since early days at SPS, riding horses at Reynolds, and just having great times.
