Obituary

Gorgia Cooper, age 83, of Fort Worth, Texas passed away on , August 17, 2023.

Gorgia Cooper was born January 6, 1940 to Earnest and Leola L. Sanders in Marlin, TX. A precious daughter that was named Gorgia .

At an early age, she joined Providence Baptist Church under the leadership of Reverend S.O.J Evans and accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior. She was an active member in the church and played the piano beautifully for the congregation.

Gorgia received her former education in Marlin, TX at Booker T. Washington High School. She furthered her education and graduated nursing school in Marlin, TX.

Several years later, she moved to Fort Worth Texas and dated Joel Cooper, the "love of her life". The two became one in 1972.

She had a generous heart, always willing to help those in need. Her love for fashion, which she was known for, made her a true "Fashionista".

Gorgia was a faithful member of the Good Hope Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Reverend Rayford Thompson where she served as a deaconess.

In 2011, Gorgia moved her membership to the Greater Rising Star Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Floyd Brooks.

The faithful morning of August 17, 2023, Gorgia heard and answered the Master's Call and moved to a brand new life.

She was preceded in death by her father Earnest Sanders, mother Leola Sanders, husband Joel Cooper, Sister Brenda Fisher, and Brother Carl Sanders.
