Glenda May McMorries Cooper

Mrs. Glenda May McMorries Cooper
was born on August 15, 1951. She passed
from this life Saturday, July 10, 2021.

She was born in Fulton, KY to the late
E.W. and Christine Darnell McMorries of Water
Valley, KY.

Glenda attended Beelerton and Hickman County High
School and graduated from Murray Nursing
School. She had served as a nurse in various places in
Western Kentucky and Northwestern Tennessee. She
worked until it was physically difficult for her to
take care of her patients as she hated to see them suffer.

In 2017, she retired from Western State Hospital in
Hopkinsville, KY. She had lived in Hopkinsville for sometime
before moving to Murray, KY to be closer to her daughter,
Melinda.

She enjoyed making crafts, collecting sock monkeys, Merry moos,
and making memories from her and her family's life.

She accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior at the age of 10 during
a revival at Water Valley Baptist Church.

Glenda is survived by a daughter, Melinda (Larry) Reed of Water Valley,
KY, a brother Eugene (Barbara) McMorries of Jonesboro, AR
two grandchildren; Morgan (Crystal) Reed of Benton, KY and
Chris (fiancee Josie Bales) Reed of Water Valley, KY. She loved her
four nieces and nephews and eight grand-nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents, she is also preceded in death by a sister,
Martha Jane and a twin brother Glen Ray.

Funeral services will be held at 1PM Wednesday in our funeral chapel

at the funeral home from 10AM Wednesday until the hour of service.
