Sally Sharon (Oyler) Cosper, 81, was born on January 4, 1944 in Akron, Ohio, the daughter of Charles L. Oyler and Adjusta Ruth (Schaeffer) Oyler. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Dempsey Cosper; sons, John Edward Cosper and Allen Dewayne Cosper; brothers, Bud, Russ and Steve and sisters, Della Jane, Barbara and Nancy.

Sally grew up in Ohio and graduated from Norton High School in 1962. She married her beloved husband, Dempsey Cosper on December 21, 1963 in Barberton, Ohio. Dempsey was a minister, so together with their family, they traveled all over the country sharing the word of God. They later settled in the Hugo area in 1982. Sally dedicated many years of her life to serving as a church secretary where she formed many lifelong friendships and provided support for anyone in need.

Sally enjoyed being outdoors working in her yard, fishing with her family and spending time with her dogs. She was also an exceptional baker and loved collecting angels. Vacationing in Ohio with her family and creating memories with them was among her most treasured moments. Sally's love for her grandchildren and great grandchildren knew no bounds. They were the light of her life, and she dedicated herself to leaving them with memories of love and faith. She will be deeply missed, but her spirit will continue to be a guiding light for all who were blessed to know her. Sally's journey on earth may have ended but her story of love and faith will be told for generations to come.

Sally is survived by her daughter, Stacie Powell and husband, Blaine of Blanchard, OK; son, Charles Cosper and wife, Rosa of Granbury, TX; grandchildren, Aaron Powell and wife, Liz, Kailey Smith and husband, Matt and Gabe Yelverton and wife, Alison; great grandchildren, Brantley, Ava, Lily, Ruby, Ryder, Samson and Sydney and sisters, Linda Johnson, Juanita Boone and Darlene Schenkenberger all of Akron, OH; along with numerous nieces, nephews, other family members and friends.
