Ina Jean (Cooper) Sharps born December 30, 1929, the eldest daughter of John Earl and Phoebe Clarice (Clark) Cooper has gone to be with her lord and savior June 25, 2021.  Already there to greet her were her parents, her adoring husband, Ronald Ray, who she loved for 63 years, her brother, Charles Cooper and his wife Norma Jean, her sister Ila Faye Long, her brother-in-law Lowell Bays, her half-sister Una Hensley, and her daughter Barbara Kay White, who she has longed to hold for 38 years.  Ina Jean has one sister left to share all the memories of their youth, Elizabeth Bays whom she loved so dearly. Ina Jean was a wonderful, doting mom, grandmother & great grandmother. She leaves behind Barbara's twin, and her caretaker for the last 6 years, Brenda Lee and her husband Melvin, her beloved only son, Ronald L.
