Elizabeth is survived by her devoted husband of 54 years, Riley “Sonny” Coop; three children, Pam (Robert) Sandlin, of Auburntown, Eddie (Rhonda) Coop, of Murfreesboro, and Roger Coop, of Shelbyville; three grandchildren, Amanda (Hugh) Hanna, Kirk (Arlyn) Gilmore, and Amber (Kyle) Greene; six great grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks donations be made to the Houston-Whitworth Cemetery Fund.
The family would like to thank the staff of Aveanna Healthcare and Lou Lou’s Private Care Home, for their tender loving care of our beloved wife and mother, as well as their compassion for our family.
Feldhaus Memorial Chapel is assisting the family with the arrangements.
