Mary "Evelyn" Hopper, age 87, of Princeton was born on February 22, 1937, in Caldwell County. She departed this world peacefully on September 23, 2024, at Princeton Nursing & Rehab. Evelyn lived a life rich in love and dedication, spent nurturing those around her as a homemaker. She was a long-time member and nursery worker of White Sulphur Baptist Church. Her loving guidance shaped the lives of many and left an indelible mark on the hearts of her family and friends.
Evelyn was predeceased by her beloved spouse, John W. Hopper, and her cherished parents, Alton and Virginia Glass. She also mourned the loss of her brother, Bro. Wayne Glass, along with her sisters, Jayne Riley and Sue Moore, all of whom hold a treasured place in her memory.
Evelyn's legacy continues through her loving family. She is survived by her son, Barry Hopper (Stephanie) of Fredonia, and her daughter, Karen Hopper (Fred Waddell) of Lakeview, AR. She is survived by her sister Margaret Stallins (Jimmy) of Princeton and her sister (in-law) Carolyn Glass of Princeton. Evelyn was also a proud grandmother to her grandson, Ramsey Hopper (Chelsea), and a delighted great-grandmother to Addison Hopper and Chloe Hopper.
Evelyn's warmth and compassion were felt by all who entered her life. Her home was a haven, welcoming friends and family alike with open arms and an ever-ready smile. A visitation will be held in her honor on September 28, 2024, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, followed by a funeral service at 1:00 PM at White Sulphur Baptist Church, located at 816 W White Sulphur Rd, Fredonia, KY with Bro. Brian Hacker officiating. Burial to follow at White Sulphur Cemetery.
As we remember Evelyn, we celebrate a life well-lived—a woman whose love enveloped her family and friends, who has now joined the angels above yet whose memory will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew her.
Goodman Funeral home is honored to be serving the Hopper family.
