So hard to believe!! You're such a legend Ash! I too haven't seen you since our school reunion where your enthusiastic presence reminded me of your humour all through school!! You always treated others well and I have fond memories of your nicknames for me - "Big Bird" and "Johnny Platten" 🤣🤣
Thank you for YOU and your beautiful soul.
Sincere sympathy to all your family ❤️

We are thinking of you on this sad day.
Your loss is unimaginable.March 01, 2024 10:45 am
Hey Ash, great times in our early days
The car trips the co-driver in my rally car and our first taste of Bathurst 1000, even if it was in Budgie’s old commodore👍😂 backed it up with taking the Fords (my Cortina & your Escort Rs200 the following year💪💙
Spoke recently via text through your shady FB profile - Callum Marie saying we should organise a catch-up but that wasn’t to be 🥲
Condolences to Janet, Michael, Scott and greater Hooper family in this tough time 💕
We may have drifted over the years but mates forever. 👍
RIP buddy 💕🍻🥲February 28, 2024 11:49 am

Ash Hooper … So many wonderful memories of school life all included you in one way or another Ash. You were the most genuine kind hearted person, with the most amazing laugh. You were there always for your mates no matter what. Rest in peace dear Ash .. you always have and always will hold a special place in my memories. To Scott and family thinking of you during this difficult time. Sending love and strength your way.

Hadn’t seen you in years we lost contact when you left town but found again in good old Facebook, we caught up face to face at your Pa’s funeral, you hadn’t changed at all except for you age lol, that infectious laugh never went away, it was like we were back being teenagers sharing stories of the mischief we got upto and how much Cain loved me way too much and what he did and how you would stand back and just laugh while I was screaming for you to get the bugger off me lol. You will always be remembered for you infectious checky laugh and the mischief we got upto back in the good old Golden Gate Motel the good old days,
Love ya Ash party hard in the skye and say hi to all our loved ones up there xxSandy (Birch) Burton

We hadn’t spoken since our school reunion, but I am filled with so many memories from the years of walking to and home from school together.
Your friendship was a constant throughout our school years growing up together. You were loved by so many of our school mates. Your warmth and humour brought sunshine to all of us. News of your passing away has left me so sad Ash. You were a truely special person.
Deepest sympathies to the Hooper Family.
With love,
