Remembering Jesusa Hopewell

Our mother, Jesusa (Sue) born in Espuelas, Texas to Elisa and Antonio Rocha. Married Miguel Angel Rodriguez. Their children's names are Ana, Sara, Gloria, Miguel Jr., Maria and Carlos. Later married to Edward Hopewell rip they adopted Andrew Rodriguez Hopewell. Her sibling: Mariana rip, Margarita rip (Marcos), Alfredo rip, Antonia rip, Eluteda (Chris), Beatrice (Juan), Antonio Jr (Gloria), Eva (Sixto), and Adam (Lucy), Dora (Jesse), and John (Gloria) Rocha. 

We have been inspired and amazed by Mom, to see how far she came in life with a 3rd grade education and could barely read or write. Years later she graduated GED. During the years that she worked at Stow Davis; she became the 1st woman upholsterer. They had to build her very own bathroom. Mom also was part of the team that built several chairs for the Gerald R Ford Museum dedication ceremony.  

Special message to her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren etc.: God Bless you all! I have a special love for all my children and grandchildren I have not met, in my heart. I want you to know that I pray for you. I want to encourage all of you to stay in school and go to college if you can. Make no mistake it's hard to live in comfort without a good job and it starts with a good education, please don't learn the hard way!

Sue, I will miss seeing that smiling face whenever I saw you. It was a pleasure to take of you while you were at Courtland of Wyoming. I enjoyed visiting with you while you were at Blodgett Hospital.
