Marie Hill Cooper, 84, of Hazel Green, passed away Thursday.
Marie was known for being an amazing cook and an immaculate housekeeper. She prepared delicious meals for family and friends and carried food to the sick. She was a talented seamstress who made her own clothes as well as clothes for her daughter, grandchildren, and others. She helped in growing lots of fruits and vegetables which were canned, frozen or shared with friends and neighbors. Her yard was perfection as well with lots of beautiful flowers and landscaping. She and her chicken and dumplins will surely be missed.
