This is a slide my daughter made of my dad.

1. Loved by many,missed by many. Albert Lee Hopkins Sr.

2. Nobody was ready for you to go when you passed but we all knew you were going to a better place.God was ready to call you home and we just kept hopes of getting to heaven and seeing your face.Memories we have plenty with you those memories are what we remember to pull through! Your joy and your presence will always be remembered until we see you again,but you’ll always be in our hearts as a father,a grandpa,and a friend! We love you dearly and I’ll always know that your never to far,your where ever I go.Stay strong and don’t worry about us, we’re gonna be okay because we all know that we’re gonna see you again someday. It won’t be long and we’ll see you again,until then I want you to know that I love you,my grandpa,my friend! My grandpa,my friend.

3. Heaven was needing a hero,like you. I’ve heard it been said that when its your time you’ll be called home,and before you know it your gone.At least we had a chance to say goodbye,but that doesn’t mean that we didn’t cry.Goodbye is the hardest thing to say to someone so close,to some people you meant the most.You may be gone but your always in our hearts. Forgotten is one thing you’ll never be,because you meant so much to me.I never told you enough or visited enough because you never realize how quick someone can leave.I know your looking down on me and your never far.Your in our hearts where your going to stay until we see you again on our calling day.It’d be wonderful if you were still here with us to,but I guess heaven was needing a hero like you.
