Hello, family, friends, and to those we may not know. My father, Benford R. Hooper, has fallen ill over these last several months and is now to the point of no return. He is at peace with it now and is ready to go home to be with his Heavenly Father. My father has what is known to be a malignant neoplasm, also known as oropharyngeal cancer, which is a cancer that develops in the back third of the tongue near the throat.

We have a financial setback and are in desperate need of help. My father has requested to be buried and not cremated. My father has been my whole life loving, caring, and giving, and now I would like to return all that love back to him by fulfilling his wish. I don't have the amount needed, but I am trying all my options to fulfill his request. I pray whoever reads this to find it in themselves to help. May God bless you. My father and his family will truly be thankful for whatever you give. Thank you.
