Beloved Newark Mom 'Goes Out Of Her Way' To Make Her Family Happy
Patch and T-Mobile are partnering to shine a light on awesome moms in the Newark area. Meet Rosia Hopkins!

NEWARK, NJ— Moms do so much for everyone around them. We try to celebrate them all year long, but Mother's Day is a perfect opportunity to shout it from the rooftops and post it on Patch: Mom rocks!
Here at Patch we've launched an initiative to help recognize the awesome moms and mom figures in communities like yours.
This submission comes from Ayezeisha Bethel who nominated Rosia Hopkins of Newark.
What makes your Mom extra special?
Ever since my siblings and I were young, my mom worked hard at everything to make sure that we didn't want for anything. Back in the day, my mom made her hardships look good! And because of that, I nominated her. From birth until present, I can still go to her for advice.. The way she loves and cares for people generally, it's unmatched.
Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?
My mom made A LOT of sacrifices for for children and not once felt any type of way about it. She goes out her way to make sure that everyone around is happy and that alone, makes her happy.
Happy Mother's Day to Rosia Hopkins, and thank you for all you do!
