On August 9, 1985 a son was born to Ed and Cheryl (Engstrand) Hooper in Alexandria, MN. They named him Robert James but called him Bobby.

After college, Bobby worked in Osakis at Lind-Rite Precision and was then hired as a machinist by Brenton Engineering in Carlos, MN. He was just transitioning to a new job with Douglas Machines in Alexandria, MN.
Bobby was a true outdoorsman. He loved to go camping, snowmobiling, ATV riding, hiking and exploring. He looked forward to annual trips to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and deer hunting each fall. He enjoyed baseball and was a MN Twins fan. Spending time with family and hanging out with his friends were other past times he enjoyed.
