Mr Cooper even though I didnt get to meet you. I hope your resting in peace with the angels. I had the pleasure of getting to know your son Bradley, I know he loved you very much. And I wish you would have met your beautiful granddaughter Lea . The kind of dad you were to Bradley. is reflective in the dad he is to Lea. Bradley is a wonderful man because of you.

I also just watched a re-run of Inside The Actor's Studio and was so touched at the love I witnessed between Bradley and his parents. I broke down at the end when I saw that Mr. Cooper had passed. I, too, just lost my beloved father and only sister one month apart and while the grief is sometimes overwhelming, I take pride in having been a part of such a loving family as well. It is the foundation of who we are and that was clear as I watched Bradley's emotion when he spoke of family. Before the program, Bradley was just my favorite actor up on this high pedestal..but now you are also a person that I share a common bond with. My heartfelt condolences to you, your mom and Holly as you struggle to accept, but know that your dad is always with you and continues to watch your future success with pride and love. He seemed to exude grace, love and kindness on that show and I am sorry I did not have the privilege of knowing him.

Cooper Family,
You do not know me, nor I you, but after the passing of someone I knew just this week, and seeing Inside The Actors studio just now, I wanted to offer my sympathies. Losing someone is never easy, and losing someone you love so much especially. It was clear that Bradley loved his father, and that his parents were/are very proud of him. Let the joy of happy memories fill you up.
My most heartfelt sympathy,
Jenn

Dear Mrs. Cooper and family,
I too just read the article on Bradley in yesterday's Inquirer and was saddened to hear of Charlie's recent passing. I worked w/Charlie @ Merrill Lynch on the institutional sales trading desk in Philadelphia for 2 years from 1988-90 when I was in my 20's. I learned a lot from Charle and very much enjoyed working with him. I'll forever rememeber him as a true gentleman with so much class. He spoke often & proudly of his family and he was a true joy to be around. I know he'll be sorely missed by you and all who knew & loved him.
With Sincerest Sympathy & Prayers,
Kathy (McMenamin) Quigley
