David Nathan Cooper, 63, passed away October 3rd at Rapides Regional Medical Center. David was an avid hunter and fisherman throughout his lifetime. He spent 46 years of his life on an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico and other places around the world. You could find him at home in the hay fields or tinkering around in his shop. He had the greatest love for his dear wife Tammy. He and Tammy would spend their days around their home or traveling to various places together. His heartbeat was his grandchildren.
