Mrs. Cooper was born August 12, 1945 in Skipperville, Alabama to the late Alvin Ace Nobles Sr. and Laura Estelle Thompson. Mrs. Cooper worked tirelessly to take care of her family. She would work multiple jobs and always made sure her girls had what they needed. Shirley adored her children and grandchildren and spent many years looking after them. Cooking for her family whenever she had the opportunity made her happy. She loved working in her flower beds; she was very proud of them and loved showing them off to family and friends. Football, well yes Alabama Roll Time all the way! Don’t get in her way during a game! She would yell at the television as if she was the coach on the field. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Louis Charles Cooper; one sister, Grace Nobles Hagler; and one brother, Ace Nobles, Jr.
Survivors include four daughters, Jenifer Richardson (Charles) of Skipperville, Amacie Smith (Stanley) of Ozark, Allice Burt of Ozark, and Rilda Cooper of Ozark; grandchildren, Zak Richardson, Noori Buchanan (Perry), Kirsten Davies, McKenzie Winn (Trey), Cooper Smith, Lara Lewis (Kyle), Hillaree Hendrickson (Edd), and Justin Blaha (Haley); great grandchildren, Zayden Fickle, Perry David Buchanan, Zoie Fickle, Colton Buchanan, Claudia Buchanan, Kyren Davies, Lilah Flynn, Grayson Winn, Easton Winn, Paisyn Compton, Aubree Hendrickson, Stella Hendrickson, Ian Blaha; and great-great grandchildren, Evani Cooks and Miles Fickle Davis.
