Donna Kay Cooper

Donna Kay Cooper, daughter of the late John and Margaret (Tyrrell) Cooper, was born June 28, 1952, in Pontiac, Michigan, and passed away February 25, 2023, at her home in Mountain Grove, Missouri. She was 70 years, 7 months, and 28 days of age.

Donna was employed by HD Lee in Lebanon, Missouri, for several years, where she lived with her two sons.

Donna was a very loving, caring, and easy-going person (if you did what she said? Ha!) She was very well known for her “No-No Stick”. Chances are very good that everyone in the family had it used on them at one time or another. Whether it was a limb off of a tree or a free paint stick from Wal-Mart, it always hurt.

She loved to crochet and if she made a dish cloth or a blanket, everyone got one for Christmas. She was a loving mother, sister, aunt, grandma, and great-grandma. She will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her.

Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by one son, Michael Dale Cooper, and one brother, Daniel Cooper.

She is survived by one son, John Cooper and fiancé, April Eaton, daughter-in-law, Candy Cooper, grandchildren, Michael T. Cooper, Rebecca Cooper and fiancé, Benjamen Barr, great-grandchildren, Anthony and Elizabeth, two brothers, Bob Cooper and John Cooper and his wife, Mona, two sisters, Mary Heikkiila and Susie Robertson and her husband, Mark, and a host of nieces and nephews and other relatives and friends.
