The daughter of Elvin and Ester Faye Reynolds, Donna was born Sept. 24, 1931 in Carnegie, OK. She was extremely proud of her Oklahoma heritage. After the Oklahoma land rush, her grandparents were original settlers and founding members of Carnegie. At an early age Donna's parents moved to Oklahoma City. She was a graduate of Central High School in Oklahoma City. Donna was married in Oklahoma City on June 18, 1950 to Ed Cooper, a fighter pilot who served in the USAF for over 31 years. In 1971, after retirement from the USAF, Ed and Donna moved to Austin. After a year in Austin, they built a home and settled in Lakeway where they have lived for nearly 30 years. A loving dedicated wife and mother, by far Donna's greatest joy was watching her grandchildren grow. A doting and encouraging grandmother, she attended many soccer games, volleyball games and track meets. She never missed a single piano recital. She developed relationships with her grandchildren that will last in their memories forever. Donna is survived by her husband of 52 years, Edwin H. Cooper, her son Edwin H. Cooper, Jr., her daughter-in-law Jeanne, and her three granddaughters, Megan, Lauren and Madison Cooper, all of Austin, Texas.
