Maggie Cooper

I am sorry I didn't know such a courageous person as Maggie when I lived in Middletown. I know what it is like to go throuh a bone marrow transplant. My sister had one in April in Morgantown WV and we almost lost her in July from graft host complication. She is doing very well know. We were very lucky she had two donor matches at the time. She sounded like a trouper during all this. I wish to extend my heart felt condolences to the family.

We didn't know your mom. We knew she had to be strong. My husband has leukemia. He also is going to Seattle for a transplant. As soon as they get a match. We are from Hamilton, OH. but moved to Alabama. So we know the long battle she fought. I'm glad her transplant worked for a time. Each day we have more is a blessing. Very sorry for your loss.

I didn't know your Mom. We never met, but I figured if someone lovingly took the time to write such a beautiful tribute, then it was worth my time to read it. It sounds like she was a remarkable woman, and it is terribly sad how she passed. I, myself, have been on the bone marrow doner list since 1989 in hopes that I might help someone else. I am also a graduate of Miami. So while our paths never seemed to have crossed your eloquent obituary allows even a perfect stranger to appreciate what...

When I joined the Information Technology Services Group at Miami in 2003, Maggie Cooper was one of the first people I met. I admired her energy, humor, and love of life. She touched the lives of so many people and inspired us with her courage. My thoughts and prayers are with Maggie and her family. She will never be forgotten!

Maggie and I met here at Miami. We were the same age, single parents, and our children are the same age. Randy and my son became friends while attending Miami.
I have many wonderful memories:
One summer day Maggie, my husband and I went boating on the Ohio river. The air planes landing at CVG were so close to the river you could almost see the people inside. Maggie had so much fun watching the planes. I didn't know planes could be fun. They were to Maggie.
She was a dear...

I believe I first met Maggie at my parent's home when she and Mac were playing ball. (My mother was Mac's sister.) She was always very competitive and enjoyed sports. I have always admired Maggie for her ability to turn a bad situation in her life around to make her the person we all knew and respected. Her life was her children and she did such a marvelous job with just loving them. As a single parent she had her hands full but managed "on her own" to build a rewarding life for her and her...
