Cooper Lee Bradley

Cooper Lee Bradley, age 11 of Sylva NC, went home to be with Jesus on July 6, 2024. He was born on June 6, 2013, in Columbus County, to Tanner and Cheyanne (Barker) Bradley.

At the young age of nine months old, Cooper AKA Coopie, Coopman, Coop, and Bubby was diagnosed with Lissencephaly and later at age three, he was also diagnosed with epilepsy. Although he endured many struggles in his short lifetime, he never failed to light up any room he was in. His smile was contagious. Cooper taught you what the true meaning of unconditional love was.

He attended Cullowhee Valley School where he loved his teachers and classmates. His favorite toy was his NASCAR steering wheel; where you found Cooper, you found his wheel in tow.

Cooper will be missed dearly by his parents, Tanner and Cheyanne (Barker) Bradley; siblings, Maddalynn Bradley and Adalee Jenkins; grandparents, Tim and Vickie Bradley, Tony Barker, Dawn Goodwin, and George Folds; Great-Grandparent, Lillian Manor; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family.

He is preceded in death by his Great-Grandfather James Manor, Great-Grandfather Charles Ward, and Grandmother Olga Barker.

A visitation will be held from 1pm to 2pm on Wednesday, July 10, 2024, at New Hope Baptist Church of Sylva, NC. A graveside service will follow at New Hope Baptist Church Cemetery.

Arrangements are in the care of Appalachian Funeral Services.
