He was an Army Veteran, serving with the 447th engineers in New Guinea during World War II. On Veteran's Day, to his great pleasure, he was honored for his years of service by the first graders of Virginia Lake School in Palatine. For almost 40 years, he worked at the Chicago brokerage firms Stone & Webster, Reynolds, and A.G. Becker, starting in the mailroom and ending up vice president of operations. After retiring from the brokerage business, Dick owned and operated Cooper's Sporting Goods, the dream of his life, from 1983-1993. Dick met his wife Erma in a church youth group at the Chicago Gospel Tabernacle. She was his helpmate and sweetheart through almost 60 years of marriage. Dick loved God and served his church, Meadows Baptist, faithfully in many capacities over the years. In addition to holding positions on the church board, he also sang in musical groups, directed the children's choir, and led the congregational singing. The sound of his beautiful tenor voice filled the air even up to his last days at Lexington Healthcare. He was also a talented athlete, playing football, basketball, and softball until he hung up his spikes at age 60. After that, he coached and managed many church and park district softball teams until his illness took over his life. Dick received numerous athletic honors, chief among them his induction into the Chicago 16" Softball Hall of Fame in 1997. Dick will be sorely missed by his family, friends, co-workers, and caretakers. Although it was difficult to say good-bye to him, we know that we will be reunited with him in heaven someday. Dick's life verses were proverbs 3:5 and 6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path." Dick is preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Agnes Cooper, his siblings, Leonard Cooper, Lester Cooper, and Mildred Hammer, his infant son, James Cooper, and many dear friends with whom he is now reunited.
