Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

To The Copprue Family, The Monroe Family of Colorado Springs, Colorado, sends our deepest condolences on the passing of Cousin Robert. We are praying for everyone's strength, comfort, and peace during this difficult time. Sending love. Rest in Heaven, Cousin. Matthew 25:21 NIV [21] "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

Dad I already miss you and your presence in this world. I will always remember how you loved to fish, it made me Love water and being near the Shores. You taught me how to cook and be a kind and respectful person. Music was also a major part of your life and influenced my life as well. I gravitated towards music the day you passed and will keep a song in my heart until we meet again. We Love from your Daughter Angie and Grands Tyler,Keyera,Hector,Breana,Brandon,Dre'Kwon, Paris Za'Mora & Zy'Air💜🤍🕊️🤍🙏🏼

To Copprue friends and family, hopefully you all can take comfort in knowing Robert is one more angel to watch over you.I knew Robert and his family when we were so very young, not knowing one day we have my wonderful neice Cornelia Edward in common. May God be with you all..

Christine Washington Allen

Mr. Cooprue was my father. He was a great example on how to put your trust and faith in the Lord. He always was kind and very inspirational to me and my husband and daughter. He will be a great void in our lives and truly missed. Your Daughter, Son-In-Law and Granddaughter. ♡ Always, Cornelia, Andrew and Dominique.

The Washington family will continue to keep the Copprue Family in our prayers. We will always remember those joyful services when the Copprue Family came to Indianola Church of God in Christ regularly, including the elder Pastor Copprue would preach, sing, and oh yes, the family would play that guitar/s. I was just a little girl but I can never forget this dynamic family. Loretta Washington, Auntie of Cornelia Edwards.

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
