Charles David Cooper, born December 24, 1956, departed the world surrounded by the ones he loved on September 12, 2020.
He was preceded in death by his father Franklin “Chick” Cooper, a grandson Jackson Wayne Tomlin and his lifelong dog Walter Earl.
He is survived by his mother, Lucille Fulcher; his daughter Lindsey Cooper; grandson Bryson “ hammer head” Sullivan; sisters, Debbie Goodbar and Janice Lacks; brothers, Russell Cooper and Scott Cooper; step-daughter, Alyse Sundeen, and special friends, Jeremy Elder, Dennis Coleman, Norman Rice and Arthur Newcomb Jr.
Charles is fondly remembered as a funny man, he could make anyone laugh. His own smile and laugh was contagious. He was a man who didn’t need instructions to fix anything he always knew what he was doing AND was always right. He spent over 30 years as an electrician. A die-hard UVA and NASCAR fan, he enjoyed spending time with his family and friends on his front porch. His energy, laugh, and spirit will be greatly missed.
The family will welcome visitors, on Monday, September 21, 2020 at Tharp Funeral Home, Madison Heights from 1:00 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. A memorial service and celebration of Charles’s life will follow at 2:30 p. m with Pastor Kirk Farmer officiating.
