SPECIAL EVENTS AND PROGRAMS

Patricia F. Hooper

Patricia Hooper went to be with her Lord and Savior on February 10, 2025, at the young age of 59, after a short battle with breast cancer. Patricia was born and raised in Baltimore, MD, where she attended Western High School. She accepted Christ as her Savior as a child and was baptized at Largo Community Church, where she immediately got involved in Sunday school and the Youth Ministries.

On May 7, 1989, she married Dwayne B. Hooper, Sr., who was the love of her life for 36 years. Out of this union, they were blessed with three sons and a daughter, Duane (who died before birth), Dewayne (DJ), Grant, and Clarke. 

Patricia was heavily involved in church activities. She co-taught Sunday School and was a co-youth director with Dwayne. She counseled, taught pre-arital class, was involved in the dance ministry, was a prayer counselor, and led the Contemporary Worship Service praise team. She never passed up an opportunity to mentor a young lady or a couple.

In the community, she was involved in numerous activities. She was the queen of Kings Purchase Bunco events and loved gathering with her neighborhood ladies. She served as a ministry fitness leader for 'Right Weigh God's Way'. She was involved in numerous Small Groups and Bible Studies and was constantly working through her "Bible Recap" study. Her first mission trip was to Houston, Texas and her second was to Honduras. During the Honduras trip, the people of LaPaz spoke to her so much that she was driven to schedule a return tri to celebrate her 60th birthday with those same people.
