Michael Cooper Obituary
A proud graduate of Abbeville High School, Class of 1982, Mike furthered his education at Piedmont Technical College. In his career, he made significant contributions to the car industry, serving as a salesman, manager, and consultant. Most recently, he was known for his enthusiastic commitment while driving cars for Balentine Ford Motor Company and working with Smokey Gray's BBQ.
Mike was known for his spirited enthusiasm as an avid Georgia Bulldog fan and a steadfast supporter of Abbeville High School Panthers. His love for sports extended beyond fandom; he also enjoyed playing golf. Mike's appreciation for the outdoors was matched only by his affection for animals. He was a member of Rock Presbyterian Church
