Funeral Services for Mrs. Sue (McGuire)
Cooper, 76, of Ardmore, Oklahoma will be held on Thursday, October 25, 2018
at 2:00 p. m. at the Trinity Baptist Church in Ardmore with Mr. Michael
Haggard officiating.
Interment will follow in the Rose Hill Cemetery in
Ardmore. Mrs. Cooper passed away on October 21, 2018 at her home.
Sue was born on March 7, 1942 in Wapanucka,
Oklahoma to Robert Boyd McGuire and Nona D. (McCurdy) McGuire. She was born
in a log cabin until they built their home at the home place. She lived in
Wapanucka till she married Ralph Leroy Cooper and began her family. Sue was
widowed very early in her marriage, as Roy passed away at the age of 27.
Having four small children, Sue started
working and continued to work for over 50 years, she believed in a good work
ethic. When not working at IHOP, she also volunteered twice a week for over
10 years at KOURTNEY’S KLOSET in memory of her granddaughter, Kourtney
Cargal. She was a manager for several years in various restaurants. She had
been at IHOP in Ardmore since its opening, where she loved working the
weekend morning’s to see her usual customers that brightened her day. She
spoke of them often.
She had been on several cruises, trips to New
Orleans, San Antonio, Port Aransas, Grand Caymans, Cozumel, Jamaica where
she liked going to and seeing the sights. Sue loved working daily in her
beautiful flower filled yard. Her grandson, Kody said it was an explosion
of flowers.
She was preceded in death by her mother and
father, Nona and Boyd McGuire of Wapanucka, her husband, Ralph Leroy Cooper
of Wapanucka, her son, Larry Don Cooper of Ardmore, her granddaughters,
Kourtney Lynn Brackett-Cargal and Kimberly Sue Ford, both of Ardmore, two
brothers, Jack East of Wapanucka, and Robert McGuire and his wife Becky of
Dallas, Texas, her sister, Charlene Lykins and several aunts, uncles and
cousins; and her favorite uncle, Ed McGuire.
She is survived by her children, Roy Cooper of
Ardmore, Luann Killingsworth of Rock Port, Texas, and Lorri and Monty
Boatright of Ardmore; 9 grandkids; 13 great-grandkids and one on the way;
brothers, Boyd McGuire, Jr. and wife Linda of Wapanucka and Kenneth McGuire
of Durant, Oklahoma; many nieces, cousins and friends and her pups, Angus,
Boss and Buster.
The casket will be closed at her request. Sue asked if she
could be buried by her granddaughters, Kourtney and Kimberly (because it’s
so peaceful) at Rose Hill Cemetery in Ardmore.
Pallbearers for the service will be: Brent
Cargal, Waylon Hamilton, Kody Boatright, Andy Ayala, Alfred Peoples and
Jeremiah Haggard.
Memorials may be made in Mrs. Cooper's name to Kourtney's Kloset or the
Ardmore Animal Shelter.
