To the Hooper family. I'm sorry for your loss. I did a search on Kevin and this came up. I knew Kevin for a short time while I was living in Savannah in 1987. Kevin was a bartender when I knew him, we played darts many times. He was always laughing and smiling when I would see him. I had not seen him in more than 20 yrs, but I had thought of him often in those 20 yrs. My thoughts and prayer go out to his family.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. and Mrs. Hooper and Kellie and her family. I have not seen Kevin in many years but he was like a little brother to me growing up on Vineyard Drive. We had a lot of good memories playing ball and participating in youth activities at Wesley. I hope his memories of those days were as good as mine. He will be missed.

- John Sanders, Savannah, GA

We are all deeply saddened to hear about Kevin. Hooper brought so many gifts to our life. Kevin will never be forgotten. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kevin's Family and Friends.
