Kevin Cooper

Kevin Alexander Cooper, aka Cole Summers, age 14, unexpectedly passed away on June 11, 2022 in Newcastle, Utah. Kevin was born on October 12, 2007 in West Valley, Utah. He spent most of his life in a small town in Southern Utah where he was able to accomplish in 14 years what it takes most other people a life time to do.
To say that Kevin was ambitious would be an understatement. At the age of 7 Kevin started his first business breeding, raising and selling meat rabbits. He learned how to repair vehicles, and a few years later he studied how to buy land and purchased a 350 acre ranch. He also purchased another piece of land that had a home on it that was in much need of repair, and through his studies online he was able to teach himself how to remodel that home.
He wrote an autobiography at the age of 14 and had plans in place to make a movie, with any proceeds going to help fund his regenerative agriculture projects. Kevin had big plans of helping to restore the underground aquifers where he lived and did a lot of study and research on how to make it happen. Kevin was very ambitious and had a love for hard work, but mostly Kevin loved his family and would do anything to make sure that their needs were met.
He was a big influence online with his unschooling efforts and inspired many with his great example and accomplishments. With all that he was able to accomplish he was a very humble kid who just went about doing good, and blessed many lives because of it. He will be missed immensely but his impact will be felt for many years to come. Thank you Kevin! We love you!
Kevin is survived by his Mother, Father, older brother, and many close friends. A memorial service will be held on July 9th at the Beryl Community Center. We ask that there be no press, media, or cameras present.
