JEFFREY NEIL HOOPER
EASLEY— Jeffrey Neil Hooper, 61, born May 22, 1962, passed away at home in Easley on Jan. 23, 2024.
Jeff was predeceased by his father, James Ronald Hooper. He is survived by his mother, Irene Hooper; two children, Chelsea Oslar (Tim) and Jordan Hooper (Alex); and one sister, Cyndi Hooper.
To those who have known Jeff, he will be forever remembered for his indomitable spirit, his tremendous love for Harley-Davidsons and a cool Chevy truck. Jeff was also known to enjoy the companionship of his dear friends, while oftentimes entertaining a good cold beer, or maybe even two.

May Jeffrey Hooper rest in peace, and may his family find strength and solace in the
