Patricia Stoops

Patricia Ann Stoops went to be with the Lord peacefully on August 26, 2022 in Little Rock, AR. She was born March 1, 1942 in Little Rock to Bessie and Horace Wood. She was the youngest of four children and is preceded in death by her three brothers; Chester, Chuck and Russell Wood. She is preceded in death (2005) by her husband, Lonnie Stoops. She is survived by their three daughters; Karen Luker (Danny) of Pine Bluff, AR, Samantha Hankins (Chris) of Sheridan, AR, and Tracy Lawrence (Cliff) of Hensley, AR. She has six grandchildren; Brian Lawrence (Yui) of Benton, AR, James Lawrence (Jennifer) of Sheridan, AR, Amanda Lawrence Jacobson (Pete) of Ben Lomand, AR, Cody Hankins (Amanda) of Sheridan, AR, Cainon Hankins (Krystyn) of Star City, AR, and Lonni Taylor (Kris) of Little Rock, AR. She had many great grandchildren.

She was a crafter and loved making all kinds of country crafts and jewelry; especially earrings. She loved giving the things she made to her daughters down through the years for birthdays and Christmas presents. Se had some of her craft patterns accepted into a major magazine of which she was very proud. She also loved riding motorcycles and when she was younger even had one of her own. Our mom also was a song writer along with our dad and together they wrote many songs that our dad would sing with his guitar. Mom didn’t sing, but she did learn to play the bass guitar. Our mom really loved family gatherings with all her kids and grandkids around hearing everybody sing together. A few other things she loved were fishing, reading (especially the Bible), gardening, and computers; she was a wiz at fixing computer problems.

Mom, we all miss you already, but we know that you are safe and well in the arms of Jesus and we will see you again someday. It’s not goodbye, but it’s… we’ll see you later.
