Etta was born to Harold Alvin and Ruby Maxine (McClure) Webber, on July 18, 1932, in Dewey, Oklahoma and passed away Friday August 4, 2023 at her home in Enid, surrounded by her family.

Etta graduated from Blackwell High School in 1950 and attended Northern Oklahoma College in Tonkawa. On December 25, 1952, Etta married Grant Hopkins in El Dorado, Kansas. Etta worked several different jobs, Joskees Department Store in San Antonio, she received her cosmetology license in Bartlesville, she then worked at the tag agency in Jet/Nash, Diller Insurance in Nash, and the Jet city clerk’s office. But Etta’s greatest accomplishment was being a wife and mother to their 4 children.

Etta was a beautiful oil painter and loved to work with ceramics. She found joy in traveling, bowling, playing bingo, and cards. But the greatest joys in her life was her family, spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
