I hate to report that the community of Raceland has had another member/ Ram football fan pass away.

Longtime resident and Raceland fan Lloyd Cooper passed away this weekend. Lloyd was preceeded by his son Randy "coop" Cooper was a former Ram standout and was also a h.s. coach in NKY and the namesake of Cooper High School in NKY.

May God bless and comfort the Cooper family.

My wife and I are very sorry to hear about your loss. We will be praying for the Cooper family and friends in this tough time.

I knew Randy a little bit from years ago when he used to coach a young team. If his dad was like Randy then ol' Lloyd was a good man.

Mr. Cooper was a fine man! He never was to busy to stop and talk to you when he saw you.

Lloyd was a great man, and his wife is an equally good person. I hate this for the family. They are very close knit. Their Grandson, Mike Salmons, is an assistance Football Coach at Raceland. All great people.

3 deaths in less than a week is too much for most. Let's see how the boys handle this Saturday night.

Wow sometimes it seems that when it rains it pours. Will add this to our prayer list . Hang in there Ram nation...God has His plan..If He be for us none can stand against us.

I knew his son Randy for many years. You can not become that Great of a man without having a Great father. The Cooper family has made this world a better place.

Another loss to the football world, Prayers and thoughts to the Rams family and the Cooper family

Like I told OldRambler yesterday Lloyd was a terrific man and person and a exceptionally great father and husband I will miss him and our talks about football. His son Randy my former brother-in-law learned from the best. I pray for the Cooper family and Ram Nation Family for what they are going through this week. May God Bless. JD

Thanks to all who have posted. Some mentioned knowing Randy (coop) but not his father. Like a couple that have already said both were amazing persons, the entire family was like that. Always a kind word, words of encouragemen. They both are together again now and watching their teams play from a better seat than anyone here will have.
