| 12720 | Both the birth and death dates on his headstone are at variance with other records. The death date on the headstone is 1910, but his death record shows it to be Sep 11 1909. Age 18y 11m 13d in the death record calculates to a birth date of Sep 29 1890, which corresponds to the Sep 1890 birth date in the 1900 Census. The 1891 birth date on his headstone is apparently incorrect. A birth date of Sep 27 1890 has also been reported. | DAVIS, Guy W. (I31967)

| 12731 | Bridgeport, Clarksburg Officials Remember Former Clarksburg City Parks Leader John Coop Cooper By Jeff Toquinto on February 13, 2025 They called him Coop. They also called him father, brother, uncle, grandfather and the one most called him -- friend. On the public front he was the face of the City Parks of Clarksburg for four decades, and it was a face that left as big of an impact as it did to those that knew him personally. Earlier this week, John Cooper, whose professional life was dedicated to the enhancement of recreational opportunities for his home city and drawing people from across the state and beyond, passed away. The passing comes less than two years after he stepped down from a job that was synonymous, in the most positive way, with his name. He officially retired on June 30, 2023. During that time, he not only made Clarksburgs park system one of the best in the state, he also worked hand-in-hand with the Bridgeport Parks and Recreation Department, in particular former Director Don Burton and current Director Joe Shuttleworth. Both were saddened with the news of the passing of their friend. "I was devastated to hear my friend passed. Yes, hes had health issues for a few years, but you dont want to think of the end result. You know its possible, but when you hear it, it is devastating," said Burton. "We not only lost a good friend, but a good man." Shuttleworth echoed those comments. "John was just a big-hearted guy who Im glad to have become friends with. Maybe it was his Italian upbringing, but he was like my big brother," said Shuttleworth, who said Cooper served as one of his early mentors when he first started in Bridgeport decades ago. "His family took us in, and we were at his house and did so much stuff together whether it was a visit for fun or having fun on his boat. Im glad I got to spend time with him this past Saturday and have a few more laughs, but Im sure going to miss my friend." There was no tension between the Clarksburg and Bridgeport Departments. Instead, there was an open line of communication that benefited both and included a lot of trips together to state conferences and other gatherings. "He was extremely active on the state side of the West Virginia Recreation and Parks Association, holding offices including president and treasurer along with serving on numerous committees," said Burton. "He had a wealth of knowledge, could see things and plan things and was such a forward thinker." "Sometimes he called me and sometimes I called him if we had questions," Burton continued. "... He was always there if you needed something or had an idea and the best part is that if he didnt think it was a good idea, hed tell you. Thats extremely valuable to have someone you trust be completely honest, and he was that person." Shuttleworth worked as an assistant director and director with Cooper. He said he was the same dependable person throughout. "With our departments so close, we would work together on projects, bounce ideas off one another, share equipment, and do what needed to be done to provide for the community," said Shuttleworth. "Where you would really see John do his best was at the state conferences because he was willing to help and was especially helpful to the younger people in our profession. I know he did so much for Clarksburg and provided for us as well, but his leadership benefited people across the state." "You always hear people say if you want to see an impact of what a person does for their profession you look to see if they left it better than they found it," he continued. "John Cooper left things better than he found it. There is no question about that." In Clarksburg, his fingerprints are in place for some of the most heavily used recreational facilities in North Central West Virginia. Under Coopers leadership, projects such as the Clarksburg Amphitheater, the turfing of Frank Loria Memorial Field, the Clarksburg Splash Zone, the Mayors Fitness Trail, new pickleball facilities and a host of others came into place and still thrive. One individual that saw Coopers work on two fronts is Clarksburgs Jimmy Williams. Williams was friends with John and his wife Mary Beth for roughly 50 years and also spent the last eight years as a member of the Clarksburg Board of Park Commissioners. "The experience he had was something that helped grow the parks. When he started and was working under (former Superintendent) Lou Rieser, there just wasnt as much money available or grants available, said Williams, who pointed out Cooper was a fine athlete and a member of the Notre Dame State Catholic championship basketball team. "John would work with (Clarksburg) City Council, the Harrison County Commission, and start writing grants, and he was excellent at it, and the relationships he built and the ability to find money allowed for the growth the parks have had." As pleased as Williams was to have watched the Clarksburg Parks System grow under Cooper, he was more pleased to call him a friend. "He was one of the best. He raised four great children, and he loved his grandchildren. I dont think he had an enemy. He so impressed people because he was good at what he did and he made you feel good; always smiling," said Williams who became emotional talking about his friend. "Even when he battled his health issues at the end, you were greeted with a smile. He was one hell of a man." https://www.connect-bridgeport.com/connect.cfm?func=view§ion=News&item=Bridgeport-Clarksburg-Officials-Remember-Former-Clarksburg-City-Parks-Leader-John-Coop-Cooper-58352 . | COOPER, John Homer "Coop" Jr. (I6158)
