Patti and Suzi, Remembering your Mother takes us back to West River Road as young children and then to Crescent when we moved to Summer Haven. She was a wonderful and caring person. God bless you and your family.

I can not begin to express how much your Mothers passing away will affect the Cooper family. Growing up knowing she had one eye open for the safety of her surfing crew while maintaining the store also was truly a God send. Heaven is truly recieving our Angel.
