Mona Faith Cooper (Robson) (92) passed away on September 12, 2023. Mona was born on June 11, 1931, in South Shields, England, to Leonard and Jennie (Bird) Robson. After departing school at the age of 14 (the required age at that time), she worked at Barwells Tyre Renewing Factory and at the Land Settlement Association in Fen Drayton.
Mona met the love of her life, Alvin, in England, in 1951 and married him in Nebraska after a five year correspondence courtship. She vowed to love, honor, and protect her beloved husband, Alvin, all their days in sickness and in health. Throughout their 65 years of marital bliss, she kept that promise to the end of his days and she left this world reluctantly, slipping through the veil to rest, refresh, and be reunited with those she loved who went on before her. Surely, we can picture in our minds their joyous reunion.
Aside from her love if being a devoted partner, she enjoyed sewing. In particular, she loved redressing and fixing used dolls (whereby no two dolls were alike) for charity. In Alabama, Mona belonged to the NCO Wives Club, Ceramics Club, and Commonwealth Club. In Uehling, she enjoyed her involvement with the Happy Hour Club and visiting the New-To-You Shoppe.
Mona was one of a kind to be sure! She was thoughtful, caring, loving, and never expressed any sadness she might have had but she was sure to advise and encourage people during their misfortunes. Anyone who knew Mona, loved her deeply for she was everyone’s aunt!
Mona is predeceased in death by her parents, her brothers, Kenneth Robson and Bernard Robson, and her husband, Alvin Cooper. Mona is survived by her sister, Noreen (Robson) Bradwell and numerous nieces and nephews.
