Angelo and I will never forget our dear nephew, Ben Cooper.  He had the most wonderful sense of humor, and was the comic relief in our family.  I"ll always remember that he came with his father, Frank Cooper to my surprise 60th birthday party.  I felt so honored that they would come all the way from Tennessee.  

He was very loved by his whole family.  May he be with our Lord always and we look forward to seeing him again!

Dear Aunt Jennifer, Uncle Frank, Matt, Kate, Nathan, and Stephen: 
 I am so saddened by the loss of cousin Ben, and you are all in my thoughts and prayers.  We have so many wonderful memories of spending time together in Tennessee, Alabama, Michigan, and with Grandmother and Grandad, who loved Ben so much.  Cousin Ben always added lots of fun.  Lots of good memories together, from watching a Star Wars movie all together in a theater in the 80s (Return of the Jedi?), to learning how to catch crawfish in the creek. 
 Sending love, Elizabeth

Frank and Jennifer, I was socked when I read Ben had passed away. Y’all are in my prayers and heart. Much love to all.


A mutual friend from college messaged me tonight about Ben. I’m still processing, but it definitely came with a huge wave of sadness. Ben and I hadn’t been in touch recently, but there was a time in college at Baylor when we saw each other every day. He was smart, irreverent, and hilarious. I dug out some old pictures and am smiling remembering all the fun we had. I will miss my friend. My thoughts go out to his family❤️

I’m an old Baylor friend of Ben’s. I’m completely in shock. He was so fu and such a good, dear friend. There are no replacements.

I was one of Ben's roommates at Baylor.  One night we were getting into trouble for no reason and found that someone at the film school had thrown out MANY large rolls of wide mm film.  It was just in a dumpster sitting there, so we took it and started wrapping up cars in the parking lot.  Well eventually the police came and made us clean it all up, but it was fun while it lasted.

Much love to all of Ben's family in this difficult time.  I hope you can find some peace.


Jennifer and family, I am so very sorry to hear about one of your beloved sons death. I can remember your sweet stories about all your boys when we worked together years ago. (Humana Florence). Always remember you fondly, you are all in my prayers. God bless. Cheryl Bullard

We were having a wonderful day until we got the tragic news of the passing of our dear nephew, Ben.  That news hurt us deeply.  We regret that we could not have been closer in life due to the distance between us but he was always in our heart.  On all the special occasions when we got together with Ben, we never saw him without a smile on his face.  He was one of the most caring individuals we've ever known and most fun to be with! 
We will never forget him and will always treasure our memories of him.  We remember how much he loved traveling and also feeding his birds.    He had a wonderful sense of humor and a tender heart.  We'll miss you, Ben!  
We thank God for you and take comfort in your strong Christian faith!  May God bless your wonderful parents and your whole family and give them comfort and healing.
Love,  Uncle Angelo and Aunt Sandy



Ben and his parents visiting Grandmother Morosky in November, 2018.

Sending prayers to the family of this special person that I loved and thought the world of. He was always happy and crazy and when you put him with Amber it was amazing what kind of friendship they had. You will truly be missed Ben. 

Ben was the third of four sons of my sister and brother-in-law, a joy and delight to them from the moment of his birth.  As he grew up he became an adventurer, a humorist, and kind and caring person.  We loved spending time with him, and his family, and wish that we had more opportunities for that in the past and in the future.  But, we will have those opportunities in heaven, for Ben had put his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ for his salvation and eternal life.  
Psalm 84:1+10, says "How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord Almighty...Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere."
