Loving mother of Sandy Cooper (Stephanie), Stephanie Miller (Kent), and David Cooper. Cherished Nana of Benjamin, William, Addison, Matthew, and Ryan. Sister of Barbara, Janet, and the late Maureen. Nancy spent her working years as a nurse at Sunnybrook Hospital and her retirement years doing volunteer work both with Northumberland Fare Share Food Bank and through her involvement with the Rotary Club of Port Hope. At Nancy’s request there will be cremation with a private family graveside service at the Port Hope Union Cemetery. A Celebration of Life will follow at a later date.

I am a first cousin of Nancy Cooper. I left a message at the time of her death. I am trying to regain contact with her two living sisters Barbara Bubel and Janet Stewart. If you have a way of contacting them and giving them my email address I would be forever grateful. It is not an urgent case, I would just like to regain communication. I lost Barbs email when she retired. Thank you. Nancy Hardyck Mountain View, CA
Linda and I were shocked today, November 16, to learn of your mother's death. We offer our sympathy We have enjoyed many good times with your parentts, not ot mentinoo with all of you.
I was so sad to hear about Nancy's passing. She was my neighbour and best friend in residence at Wellesley so many years ago. We didn't see each other often, but kept in touch over the years. She was a beautiful, warm, loving woman inside and out, who will be missed by many. My heart goes out to her family. May wonderful memories live in your hearts forever.
It is with a heavy heart I send my condolences. I am saddened with the passing of a cousin. I’m sorry I did not keep in touch over the years - just short entrances now and then into our lives. With love, Heather

I knew Nancy from volunteering with her at the Food Bank. I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. She was great to work with, and always spoke so fondly of her family, especially her grandchildren. My heart goes out to her family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I'm shocked and saddened for the loss of Nancy, just after your Father Bob. They were so kind to me and full of information. I remember Nancy being very involved in the community and loving her family. Im so sorry to all family members for a big loss. She loved being a grandmother and so proud of all of you her children and gramd children. God bless you all, love and light. Naomi, Bobs psw
My sincere condolences to the Cooper family. I knew your Mom and Dad as a Community Care home help volunteer. May you hold dear to your heart all your wonderful memories.
Sending my sincere condolences to her family. We met as Nancy volunteered at the Food Bank. I enjoyed her constant smile and good humour as she assisted with providing for our neighbours. She will be missed.
Guys our hearts are just a little bit broken to hear of Mom's passing and there just aren't the words to express our sympathies.....As you are a military family the word warrior comes to mind when we think of Nancy. Obviously your Pops was a very larger then life guy and your Mom was beside him step by step. We are very very grateful for the friendship we had over the years and as I walk by your old house on Ritter everyday with the dog I realized it will always be the Coop's place. There isn't a Rice Krispie square that I see that doesn't remind us of Nancy. My she be at peace and may you get some consolation in knowing how very much loved she was by all of us.
I had the pleasure of training at Wellesley Hospital with your mother /sister. Nancy was smart, funny, an excellent nurse and a good friend. When we lived in residence your Mom had a record player, would put it in the hall and play the Lettermen, especially a song named “ Smile”. I can remember one reunion where she showed us a wedding picture of all the girls being married together. Non Covid, we would have been at our 50th reunion last week expecting to see Nancy’s smiles. So very sorry for your loss.

On behalf of the Rotary Club of Port Hope, our club is profoundly saddened to learn of Nancy's passing...we have all lost a wonderful friend. Nancy was a very committed Rotarian, involved in all of our service projects and fund raising efforts within community; always the first to volunteer and work long hours, always with a smile on her face. We will miss her humour and her passion for helping those in need; Nancy was best at " service above self ". We offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences to Sandy, David, Stephanie and the entire Cooper family.
To Nancy's Family, I am also a classmate from the Wellesley Hospital, Class of 70. So very sorry to hear about Nancy's passing. As I remember,Nancy always had a smile on her face, regardless of the situation. At our last reunion, 2015, Nancy and I sat beside each other and talked, talked, talked. We each commented how we really didn't know each other during training but it was very nice and comfortable to get to know each other then. Please accept my sincere condolences in the loss of your Mom, Mom-in-Law and Nana.
Nancy was my classmate in nursing but I got to know her better in the past few years at reunions and luncheons. I’m so very sorry for your loss it seems this is so unfair to all of you. I will miss seeing her
My deepest sympathies to the Cooper family in the loss of Nancy. Although I had only known Nancy for a few years, I valued her friendship, dedication and insight she brought to our Rotary. Nancy will be missed. Bob
Our/my sincere condolences to the Cooper children...Sandy, Stephanie & David of both your parents, Bob & Nancy, passing away shortly apart. My family will always remember your parents, as children, on Ritter Crescent, as Michael & the Moundettes...Ashley, Jennifer & Vanessa. Rest In Peace & hopefully you will meet up with Angel Bill & play a game of golf & tell jokes & stories in heaven. ??❤️ The Mound Family??
When Anders and myself were in Canada, alone and without family Nancy and Bob adopted us for a year. Our time with them made a difficult experience joyful, and brings back fond memories of their selflessness and love. Words can't express our sadness and our hearts go out to Sandy, Steph and David and their families who have lost two of the biggest angels in the world, in the same year. Nancy was a beautiful and kind soul, and we will miss her.
Sending my sincerest condolences to the McDonald family along with wishes for strength and courage. I met Nancy only a couple of times but I will always remember her welcoming and warm smile, her friendliness, and her energy. May her memory be eternal and bring comfort to all.
My sincerest condolences in the sudden loss of Nancy. Nancy and I were both graduates of the Wellesley Hospital School of Nursing. Nancy was a shining example of a highly intelligent and highly regarded R.N. working in the field of cardiovascular medicine. She was also a friendly, smiling, lovely individual who shared her warmth with everyone. We have lost one of our caring angels. Her earthly presence will be missed.
