Lucky Lady!

Grandma Lois "Strong Arms" Coppock
February 1919 - August 2008

My beautiful, wonderful, sweet, funny, sarcastic, loving and generous grandmother passed away this morning at 4:27am. She was surrounded by her 5 children and their spouses - just as she wanted it. She was so peaceful and comfortable - also just as she wanted it. She was 89 1/2 years old. She was a sensational mother and a one-of-a-kind grandmother. Our family is so blessed to have her in our lives - and for as long as we did.

Last Friday, she accepted Jesus into her heart. So today, she is in Heaven with Jesus, probably visiting with Grandpa Pete, Big Jim, Jimmie Hal, and Mantha. I know they have made her feel right at home, as they have been there for a bit longer than her. Lucky Lady!
Thank you everyone for your prayers.
My family and I are so grateful. Here are a couple of my favorite pictures of her in recent years.

Granny with her twin babies: my dad and my Uncle Dennis

This is my favorite picture of her.

I love this picture


This is her birthday cake from this year. This is what I called her "Hot Stuff"

When she moved into my parents' home last October, we put her handprint into her concrete walkway. It's nice to have that down there.

So glad she is in heaven Kat but sorry for your loss. I loved all the pictures and the way you are honoring her memory by talking about the good times with her.
