Audrey Cooper Louderback, age 96, of Oak Hill, Ohio went home to be with her Lord on Friday, March 6, 2026. Audrey was born August 7, 1929, in Red Brush, KY to the late George W. and Rhoda (Sparks) Cooper.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband of 38 years, Ezra Louderback, seven brothers, five sisters, several nieces and nephews, great granddaughter, Kayla LeAnn, and one great great grandchild.

She is survived by her four children, Wanda (Roger) Gilliland, Connie (Eldon) Malone, Marie (Ronald Jr.) Botts, and Lefty Louderback; her grandchildren, Dawn McGuire, Rhoda (Matt) Boggs, Ed (Patti) Malone, Sheila (Brian) Schick, Rhonda (Tim) O’Neal, Amy (Mike) Wickline, Stacy (Tom) Gilliland, Roger (Savannah) Gilliland Jr., and Stephanie (Ryan) Criner.

Audrey was a beautiful red-head lady and had a great sense of humor. She taught in her teen years at a one room schoolhouse in Lewis county Kentucky. She taught Sunday school for many years and was a mighty prayer warrior. Audrey loved to “get her hands in the dirt” and plant vegetables and flower gardens. She loved to sing hymns and listen to bluegrass gospel. She was an excellent cook and never met a stranger. She loved to quilt and take shopping trips. Her biggest wish is to see everyone again in Heaven by trusting in Jesus, her Savior.
