Our Elders

Lillie Mae Cooper

Cakes. Christ. A caring and purposeful heart. Now, a bridge to our pasts as the eldest sibling.

Georgia Mae Gibson

Elegance. Style. Fashion. Mother's strength, sass, and wit. Never a taker of wooden nickels. Gone too soon.

Arthur Hughes, Jr.

The uncle for whom legends are made. An ode to the old school, in the best ways. A moment in time, he was.

Hilda Ruffin

Endless love. A mother to all. The fun Aunt with all your favorite cousins! Blues aficionado. Gone too soon.

Maxine Chapple

Bridging the gap as the siblings' baby girl. Always knows how to cure what ails you. Highly anointed!

Robert Hughes, Sr.

The fun uncle. Dad jokes and an uncanny talent for staying in the know. Family's first videographer.
