Hope Marie Hawksworth

On September 2nd, 2011, our hearts were broken and our lives were forever changed by the sudden passing of Hope Marie Hawksworth. Born on May 27th, 1957, in Baltimore, Maryland, Hope was the daughter of Robert and the late Beatrice Baginski and older sister to Tim Baginski and Faith Blaylock. She was very proud of her Polish heritage and always loved to share traditions with her own family. In August of 1977, she married the love of her life, Michael Hawksworth, and created a loving family with their children: Jason, Melissa, Lauren, and Mathieu. Her family further extended through the marriage of Mathieu to Julie and Melissa to Dave, loving both of them as her own. Mike and Hope valued traveling together and exploring new places around the world; as well as, spending quality time together in Maui. Hope was an amazing mother who cared deeply for her children and provided them with guidance and support. She adored her grandchildren Lucas, Lillian, Ethan and Ava and provided those lives with so much love and many memories that they can carry on. Hope was a very driven professional through her careers in Real Estate and Accounting, but her true personal passion was found in her art. In addition, she loved music and built a life constantly surrounded by music of all genres. In her passing, we have lost such an amazing, compassionate, giving, and creative mother, wife, grandmother, sister, and friend. We will forever carry her memories and love.
