My family is blessed to have tons of OLD pictures!  I guess everyone in my family has been as crazy about pictures as me!!  I just wanted to share a few of my favorite old photos with you!

This picture was taken in 1906.  My Grandpa Cooper and his brothers.  Oldest - Youngest: Lyle, John, Clarence and Lloyd (my grandpa!).

This is my paternal grandmother, Mildred Grace Newburn - taken in 1908. When I was born 70 years later, everyone said how much I looked like Grandma Cooper - I had her "black eyes".

This is my Grandpa Cooper, Lloyd, as a senior in high school.  This picture was taken in 1920.

This is my dad when he was a baby!  Isn't he cute?!?!?  He was born in December of 1938. 

This is my dad in his senior picture, 1956. 

This is my dad's family in 1956.  From L-R:  Aunt Phyllis Cooper Brister, Grandpa Lloyd Cooper, Grandma Mildred Cooper, Dad- Gary Cooper, and Aunt Donna Cooper Overby.

This picture was taken at Grandma & Grandpa Cooper's 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration, in 1976.  Sadly they both passed away not too long after, so I never got to meet my paternal grandparents.  But I have lots of WONDERFUL memories of my aunt's, who have also passed away, and all of my Cooper Cousins!
