Cooper, Cory – It is with great sadness and our deepest heartbreak to announce the unfathomable passing of Cory Cooper in the early hours of May 21st, 2026, in QEII, Halifax Infirmary Site, surrounded by family.
Cory was born in 1984 in Eastern Shore Memorial Hospital in Sheet Harbour to his mother, Joyce (Munroe) and father, Cameron Cooper.
He is survived by his mother, Joyce (Munroe) Erskine; father, Cameron Cooper (Wanda); siblings, Wayne Cooper (Pamela), William Cooper (Raven), Caleb Erskine, Shealeen Gagnon (Ryan), Kalen Erskine, Morgan Cooper (Brian), Cheyenne Cooper (Brandon), Brandon Cooper (Latisha), Luke Smiley; paternal grandmother, Sharon Cooper; maternal grandmother, Ada Munroe; aunts and uncles, Lisa Cooper, Melinda Cooper, Jeannie Munroe Stevens (Brian), Marilyn Munroe, Russell Munroe (Linda); nieces, nephews, and cousins whom he loved dearly.
He had a deep love of the outdoors, his family, and his kitty, Midnight who followed him around like a shadow. He carried around a natural and effortless artistic talent, and the ability to spread laughter wherever he went, to whoever he was with. Anyone who knows him will remember him for his kind, soft heart as he was genuinely one of the kindest, warmest people down to his core.
Always tinkering, never still, he was a jack of all trades always happy to help loved ones in any way that he could. He is often regarded as someone who would give the shirt off of his back to any stranger who needed it and always seeing the best in people despite their circumstances.
Cremation has taken place and a private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
