Melicent Clarissa (Clixie) Hooper, a devoted daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and faithful servant of the Lord, passed away peacefully on February 6th, 2025, at the age of 92. She was born in Logan, Utah to Sara and Clarence Murdock and grew up in Driggs, Idaho with her 5 siblings. After obtaining a nursing degree from Weber State College she pursued a career in nursing.

On March 26th, 1954, Clixie married the love of her life, Donald Hooper, and together they built a beautiful family. They raised three children: a son, Donald Hooper Jr, and two daughters, Diane Hooper and Lisa Hodsdon. They lived in some of the most beautiful settings in Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming. After retirement, they moved back to Driggs and fulfilled a dream of building a home with a view of the Grand Tetons.

She also had a deep love for temple work and spent countless hours serving in the house of the Lord, ensuring that the blessings of eternity could be extended to others.
