I met Larry as a kid when I lived on NASSAU DRIVE IN SAN ANTONIO. He lived in the apartment complex across the street.I was fortunate to have Larry as a friend through Jackson Middle School where  I played football ball with him. We eventually went onto Robert E Lee where I watched him play from the stands. He will be missed. 

Your family will be in our prayers.

You meet many people through the restaurant business, from customers, co-workers, and managers. Nobody stood out or had impacted my life in the realm of the restaurant industry as much as Larry did. With his hilarious antics during work or his boundless amount of life advice derived from his own personal experiences. Many people say work is like your second home, if that’s the case, then Larry was almost like a second father to that home. I am truly blessed to have known Larry. 

Larry was very special to me. Working in the restaurant industry, you encounter a lot of different types of managers and a lot of different leadership styles. Larry stood out; he was kind, empathetic, and gracious. He led by example through hard-work. He was also silly, and made me smile or laugh every shift I worked with him. I always admired him so much and truly felt comforted by his presence. Years ago, we were both often closing down the store together, so we developed a little ritual of eating dinner together. Every night around the same time we sat down at Table 40, split a meal, and had good conversation. I was going through a hard time and Larry always told me stories about his life to make me feel better. It was often the only time he would sit down throughout his long shifts. I had the pleasure of working for him at Lupe Tortilla but our friendship carried beyond that. I often visited him when he moved to Stone Werks. He always made sure to ask how my family was doing. 
To Larry’s family, I am truly sorry for your loss. His impact will never be lost on me. He was an incredible man who brought so many people joy and comfort. I will remember him forever. 

Larry was my manager at lupe tortilla, my first job. He was the best manager I could ask for he was so funny and nice and never failed to make me happy!!! He was like a dad to me and I can’t believe he is gone. He will be missed !!

My thoughts and prayers are with the Hopkins family.    Larry  always placed a smile on all our faces.   My life long memories with "Hoppy" are numerous and we will miss him greatly.

I went to school with Larry at Robert E. Lee.  
Very sweet man and I was privileged to see him at our last high school reunion.  He will be missed.  Rest in Peace my friend.

Dear Larry and Family,  Larry you and your brother Bruce were my first friends in Texas when I moved here 39 years ago.  Life and family commitments keep us from breaking bread all to often.  Still I have always felt you were never far.  Friends for life.  Your life ended way to soon and yes you with live in our hearts and not be forgotten.  Rest in Peace ,     Clark

Larry was  a man full of rare genuine kindness. His bright smile will be missed dearly. My husband, Raul, knew Larry for over 30 years. Employees that were blessed to have worked with Larry know that not only was he "The Best Boss Ever," but also a mentor that took the time to make you successful or pick you up when you were down. He made such a positive and powerful impact at Ajuua and will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN...To the Hopkins family- many share in your pain and tears, and we send our deepest condolences and love.

I worked with Larry for many years in the restaurant business.  He was my boss and I was his at different establishments.  Through the years, we became very good friends.  Every week we would call each other and share "war" stories of what happened in the workplace.  Each conversation would always end in laughter.  He was a great coworker and more importantly, a great friend.   I am devastated at losing such a great friend.  I was extremely lucky to know him and I will miss him greatly.  In closing, I am a better person for having him be a part of my life.  

Larry was a great teammate, classmate and friend who always had a great outlook and attitude. Our prayers are with all who loved him

I feel so sorry right now because Emilie and I ran into him about 6 - 7 months ago. In a small tavern  we shared some spirits, laughs, and went back into the past with some good memories that we all treasure.  We wish to express to Bruce and Shari as well as the rest of his family our deepest sympathies and prayers. RIP. Larry

Larry was a classmate,  teammate and good friend. He always had a smile. We will miss you Larry.

We were classmates and teammates at Lee.  Larry was always a wonderful guy!  Condolences to Larry's family....I know he will be missed.

My most sincere condolences to Larry's family and friends ! I am so sorry for your loss. I graduated from Robert E. Lee Highschool with Larry in 1978. He was one of the nicest guys in our class and a friend to many. You will be in my thoughts and prayers ! 🙏

To loved ones, my name is Lorelle Gillig. I was a host at Stonewerks and had the privilege of having Larry Hopkins as my manager for about a year and a half. Words can’t express how much everyone here loved and cared for him. He was my favorite manager I think I have ever had to this day. If I was having a bad day, he would always cheer me up with his bright smile and positive attitude.  I give you my prayers and deepest condolences. I know what an amazing man he was, and I can only imagine how great his family was too. Thank you Larry, for giving me so many happy memories at Stonewerks. Hopkins family, you have all of my love and support during this time. May Larry Rest In Peace.
