Terry Cooper Obituary

Terry Joe Cooper, 66, of Potts Camp, passed away on October 8, 2025, at Sanctuary Hospice House in Tupelo. A beloved father and brother, Terry's selfless generosity, genuine kindness and quick humor were a gift and a joy to all who loved him.

The youngest of six siblings born to Joe and Audine Cooper, Terry was cherished by his family, especially his mother.

A retired driver, Terry worked for US Holland for 28 years. In his early years, he worked on his family's farm. Terry brought a strong work ethic to every task he undertook and leaves a legacy of commitment and sacrifice.

Terry is survived by his sons, Kevin Cooper (Brandi) and Tyler Cooper; grandchildren Jon Collier Kidd, James Reed Cooper and Josie Anna Louise Cooper; siblings Dianne Campbell (Ashby), Kathy Pipkin, Denise Roebuck (Larry), Keith Cooper (Beverly), brother-in-law Larry Hall, and a host of nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and a sister, Pam Hall.

Family and friends will celebrate Terry's life Saturday, October 11, at Salem Baptist Church, with visitation 2-4 and funeral at 4pm. Memorials may be made to Sanctuary Hospice House.
