Lil' John and Family:
As you mourn your Grandfather's passing, remember to celebrate your time with Big John Cooper. He was a man of impeccable character. God doesn't forsake us, not even in our times of suffering and despair. "To be absent from the body is to be close to God."
Uncle Eric
A valuable soul has passed on. I will cherish every memory of you, my favorite uncle. You were supportive and thoughtful, and you could fill a room with laughter like no other. Thanks for the many memories of your kindness. My deepest sympathy to your survivors, my Aunt Evelyn, cousin John Jr., and Monica. Not only will I miss you, but your brother George, sister Corine and all your grandkids, neices, and nephews will also truly miss you because we all loved you very much. Thank you, uncle, and fare thee well.
Uncle John I had no idea that the day of November 25 would be the last day for you and I to see or talk with one another. I miss you Uncle!!! I will hold on to the memories of laughter and the annoying moments we had. Just wanted some kind of indication that you would be "leaving " us but I understand how "death " works. Love you always!!
