To the Cooper Family, We send my deepest condolences. We are deeply sorry about the loss of your dear daughter, mother, grandmother. Although, no words can take away the sorrow that you bear. May it be comforting to you to know that others care and loved her. May you find comfort in remembering all the guidance, strength, and love in which your mother touched your life. Those precious gifts will always live on in you. We are praying you’ll be filled with comfort & peace and send healing prayers and comforting hugs.

RIH Benji, We will miss your beautiful smile, your kind gestures, and your warming spirit.

Still in shock over this happening to you. I always remember you doing the voice of that character from a book we were reading in 5th grade. You made the whole class laugh and your smile brightened the classroom. I remember when one of our classmates accidentally hit you in the butt with a dodgeball in 6th grade…the look on your face.
You will always be loved by the many people you brought joy to.
I’m praying for your family and children. Heaven definitely has a class clown now…I will miss seeing you.

Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14
Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

Bengie was quite a remarkable woman. In 1995 when my baby brother was in ICU at St. Michael's she became a frequent visitor who always checked on my parents. When he passed away, she cried like he belonged to her and her family. She was an absolute jewel and will really be missed.

I am terribly sadden to just now seeing this ... 6 months late. I really liked talking to You. Moving away from Texarkana cost me in being as aware of the lives of dear friends I grew up with. To the family, "God be with you ... share the beautiful memories of your loved ones."
Sincerely,
Kim Sabbie
