During his life journey he was a son, brother, Airman, husband, father, PeePaw and so much more. Dad loved working for the Houston Mounted Patrol and City of Galena Park. He was also the mosquito man, the dog catcher, the bird man, and candy man.
He was saved and became a child of God while married to Nina Sue Walker.
After suffering a stroke, he lived at Atria in Kingwood for 5 years where he continued his role as dad, PeePaw, bird man, and candy man.
Dad passed peacefully surrounded by his family. He was loved by so many and well known for his crazy, fun antics. Dad left us so many memories which we will always cherish.

I worked at City Hall when Bucky was still there. However we knew him from Little League Baseball, too. He coached our son Mike Cooper. When he drove by and picked up all the boys on the team for practice it was quite a sight. Boys hanging out of the crazy driven truck and laughing. They had a ball and Bucky urged them on. Some parents never came to a practice or a game, but he made sure that his team had a ride each and every time.
When dealing with dogs, people would tell him, "oh my dog doesn't bite". Bucky would answer, the dog has teeth doesn't he?, then he will bite.
Our thought and prayers are with you, his family. Treasure all those memories he left you with. Love Tom and Cathy Cooper, and Mike Cooper
