Mrs Hopkins was the best Mrs Clauss to the whole town of Columbia along with her husband Santa. Always loved seeing her in church with her many beautiful hats. Loved her
John, Jim and Marie - condolences from all the Blakes. We go back more than 60 years. Your mom and dad were the best people and coaches, including your mom providing the Khoury league players with green colored drinking water for the luck of the Irish. It worked.
I am so sorry to hear about Evelyn. My parents were long time friends of Charlie and Evelyn. I remember your mom and dad the most from growing up. Know that she is at peace.

John, Jim, and Marie, I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing, but I know she is back with her buddy again. I'm sure you have been told this before, but I can't tell you how many times my dad said that Charlie and Evelyn were the perfect couple. To him they were they were not only the gold standard for marriages but for all individuals as well. Dad would say "If you have an issue with Charlie or Evelyn, you better check yourself out"! Wow, what a beautiful person. I am blessed to have known her.
