    I have so many pleasant memories of shopping at Cooper’s store in my growing up years. We would often run to the store for groceries. I can still picture Mr. Lawrence with his white apron on behind the meat counter cutting fresh meat. Mrs. Cooper was usually there with her friendly smile. They provided a great service to the community for many years and I just wanted to say I’m thinking of you as a family….
