I just stumbled upon David´s obituary and I´m so sorry to hear of his passing. He was my cooperating teacher when I was student teaching at Lincoln. His guidance still serves me well - he gave me confidence in the classroom and showed me what a joyful spirit can do in the classroom! Thank you David Cooper! Your spirit in teaching lives on over 20 years after imparting it on me!

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends. Please take comfort in the words found at 2nd Thessalonians 2:16,17.
