Tallahassee, FL (WTXL) A memorial service was held Saturday January 10th for Morgan Hooper, the 16 year old Chiles High School student killed in a car accident. ABC 27's Abbey Phillips attended the funeral and has more on how friends and family will remember the life of Morgan Hooper. First Corinthians, verse 13. It was Morgan Christine Hooper's favorite bible verse, read out loud Saturday afternoon.

Morgan died in a car accident early Wednesday evening on Meridian Road, when her car spun and hit a tree.

Just days later, tears, hugs, and memories filled Thomasville Road Baptist Church, at the funeral of the 16 year-old Chiles High School junior.

Now, family, friends, and fellow classmates came to say their final goodbyes, and to show support for Morgan's parents.
