Samuel Sheridan Hoopengardner by youngest daughter Frances Hoopengardner, September 1999.
We all called our dad POP. I best remember him as all ways working. When he worked as stable boss for Davis Coal Co., we lived next to Nethen Hill road going from Elk Garden, W.Va. to the Nethen Hill church. This house was just above the railroad station. At this time POP was in charge of the horses and the farm land. He was always busy.
On Friday night he would bath and dress to attend his IOOF Lodge meeting. Sunday he would go to church. I never knew POP to drink, use tobacco of any type or to swear.
When the depression hit, we moved to where I currently live. POP still stayed busy by working his Garden or doing odd jobs around the house. He also worked March Deans Garden, got their coal and wood into the house. POP never sat down to a meal without first blessing his food and good life. He had pneumonia several times and passed away January 1934.
KEYSER TRIBUNE, Keyser, WV. March 22, 1922. Samuel Hoopengarner was hurt about the head by a fall of the slate in the mines this week. While not seriously hurt yet he will not be able to work for several weeks.247
