David and family, we were very sorry to hear about Michelle. She truly was a fighter through out her battle, what an ambassador for the fight against cancer. We continue to keep you and your family close to our hearts and pray God's blessings as we anticipate a reunion in heaven someday. May your heart be filled with His love...

I wish to express my gratitude for and the benefit of my having known Michelle.

We first met at the Jim Hudson Toyota Dealership where Michelle served as Client Relations Manager representing the business and meeting the needs of the Clients. A difficult job at times, she confided, but a job that suited her
and that she accomplished brilliantly
because she was gifted with a servants heart.

As her Chaplain, I would visit with her during my weekly rounds at this dealership. It was not long bfore I became quickly aware that I was in the presence of someone very special:
She was as lovely as a desert flower,
She was bright as an early morning ray of sunlight, She was as comforting as a breath of fresh air.

She was all these things and more:

She was a devoted and loving young woman:

She was dedicated to and loved her family.
She was devoted to her Husband David, whom she loved deeply and dearly.
She was dedicated to and very much loved Her Mother, Berta,Her Father, Mike, Her brother, Mark, Her step-Father, Allen, Her entire family – each and everyone of you.
She loved her four-legged children – Meesha and Gracie and I know she would wish that we would mention Q-Tip.

She was fully committed to and very much loved her Employer: Jim Hudson and his dear wife Sybil. She was dedicated to all she served at her work
both customers and fellow associates.

She was dedicated to many, even some she did not know: woman in prison,
others struggling against cancer, and
of course the list goes on….

Where ever there were the lost
Where ever there were the hurting
There her heart would also be.
She was devoted and loving to all these and more;
I know she was because she told me of her love for you and how she prayed for each you, continually; and she entrusted me to pray for you also.

Do you see? Have you heard?
Michelle was other oriented:

She was like a beacon from a light
house shining for all to see,
We were drawn to her like ships seeking safe harbor.
She was like a bit like a mother hen, always keeping track of our lives
discovering our concerns and our needs
always encouraging us, always praying for us.

Regardless of her responsibilities
She always made herself available to all who were tired, weary, in need.

She loved openly and freely,
She offered grace and compassion,
mercy and counsel, aid and comfort to all…

What makes Michelle so special?

Michelle is a child of God.

She would tell us that she’s not special but we would know better...

She would tell us that if we saw something special in her it would be God’s doing... and she would be right.

She continually sought to understand God more, to draw nearer to Him, to hear Him better, to be like her Savior,
and her Lord, Jesus Christ.

She was my friend
She was my Sister-in-Christ
Just as she was for many of you.

As I sought to encourage her,
she often encouraged me.
Just as she did many of you.


Jesus himself explains why
Meredith Michelle Mason Cooper
was so very special to us and to Him:

Jesus said:
“ I am the light of the world.
Whoever follows me will never walk
in darkness, but will have the
light of life.” (John 8:12)

Michelle had the light of Jesus Christ; Michelle had the love of God for all humanity emanating from her.

Jesus also said:
“You are the light of the world.
A town built on a hill cannot be
hidden. Neither do people light a
lamp and put it under a bowl.
Instead they put it on its stand,
and it gives light to everyone...”
(Matthew 5:14 -15)

Jesus said these words to his disciples
as he taught them how to live out their faith.

Michelle had heard these words and she took them to her heart. She did successfully what most of us attempt a
lifetime to accomplish. She applied Jesus words words to her life.

Michelle was fully dedicated to her Savior, Jesus Christ:
She followed his teaching.
She wanted people to know about
her Lord and Savior.

She wanted to be His Light and
His Love to a hurting world.

She followed another of Jesus his
commandments given in Matthew
Chapter 22:
In response to a question,
What is the greatest Command of God?
37 Jesus replied:
“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’
38 This is the first and greatest commandment.
39 And the second is like it:
‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

Michelle defined “neighbor” the Way Jesus defined neighbor:
“Everyone”

Now, I close with this offering from God’s Word for our comfort for it provides the Eternal Hope that Michelle is now living.

A passage of Scripture which Michelle and I we shared many times.

Scripture: 1 John 4:7-12

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who has been born of God knows God… (v7)
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another… (9-11). If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us;(v15-16a). God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God and God in him. In this way love is made complete among us…There is no fear in love…perfect love drives out fear…(v16b-18.)

God wants us to know that for as much as we all love Michelle; He loves her even more than we can imagine.

God wants us to know that being in his presence is a greater pleasure than we could ever hope to experience in this life.

God wants us to know that we are all here for His purpose and that Michelle fulfilled His purpose for her brilliantly.

God wants us to know that Michelle abides with Him and that we can abide with them, all we have to do is embrace His Son, Jesus Christ,
as He has embraced our Michelle.

This is the Michelle we came to know:

A beautiful young devoted woman
reflecting the light and love
of God the Father and His Son
in a lost and hurting world.

Finally I wish to say to David and Berta, thank you both for sharing Michelle’s love with so very many people and for that we are all
forever grateful.

Dear Berta, Paula and family. So profoundly sorry for your loss. I pray that Jesus wraps His loving arms around you all and comforts you. Remember Dear ones that your loss is Heavens gain. And you will see Michelle again!! All my Love Phil H.

David and family my thoughts and prayers are with you. I know Michelle is in heaven and will be your guardian angel. she is at peace and out of pain. I know that we will see her again and that she is dancing and rejoicing in God's glory. Love always Michelle (aka Beulah Mae johnson)

To one the most beautiful people I have ever known. Michelle was beautiful inside and out and her friendship was such a blessing to me. Thank you Lord for our dear Michelle! Andrea

We were out of town when we heard of Michelle's passing. She was a very dear and special friend. We will miss her smile, bubbly personality, love for others, and her love for the Lord. She will truly be missed and we know that we will see her again someday. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. We love you Michelle!

Dear Berta,
I'm so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you and your family during this time of sorrow.
Love,
Teri and James Verkaik

I believe God sends angels to Earth to guide us. I can not explain you any other way than to say God made you special. He made you an angel. Logan asked me what color your wings were up in heaven. I said pink and sparkling. My precious friend. Always there when I need an shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen, advice to trust, and love without boundaries. Dealing with your loss seems impossible since you were the person I would go to for support through these times. I still find it hard that you are not a phone call or text away. Just today I had a situation where I wished for your input. I think back to all the years of great dances, pork and beans with Kraft Mac N Cheese between classes, hair dying experiments, frogs we had to kiss to find our princes, and therapeutic lunches picking things off each others plates. I miss you so, but I still see you wherever I go for you are always on my mind. You will forever be in my heart. I Love you!

David,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers.

Michelle, I wish we had kept up after we left high school. I have many wonderful, fun memories of us and our "group." You were always so kind and generous. I have my scrapbooks full of fun photos and your sweet smile. Rest peacefully, my friend.

Love, Anna Huckabee Smith

Michelle was a fighter through this, and never gave up, but gave all she had. She had a loving husband, who was there, and showed the world what a true man, and husband is, through this rough time in their young lives. I am sad by the loss of a family member, but I am at peace, that she is no longer hurting. She will always be a part of all our lives that shes touched, and her spirt will live on forever in our hearts, and in the memories she has left behind. I Love You!

Tammy Rich @ Family!

There are no words to adequately convey the tremendous impact Michelle had on my life and the lives of many, many others. From her sweet smile and thoughtful cards to her hugs and listening ear, she was the kindest, yet toughest woman I have ever met. The grace and strength with which she fought her cancer battle are a true testament to her faith and as well as to what a tremendously courageous woman she was. Thank you, my dear friend for teaching me so many life lessons about compassion, love and friendship. May your spirit soar now that you are no longer burdened by an earthly body and know that those left behind will be honored to continue teaching the lessons you so artfully passed on to us. You are still touching lives, sweet Chel.

David, Berta, Taylor and all of Michelle’s family and friends will remain in my prayers as you mourn the loss of such a beautiful soul; for while we rejoice that she is pain free and in heaven, it will take time to adjust to our earthly angel’s transformation into an angel above us.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Michelle was our very first babysitter long ago . We entrusted our little ones to her and she didn' t disappoint!! We have lost touch over the years, but now the memories of her sweet spirit come flooding back. So sad for her deep struggle with cancer. We rejoice that she is in the arms of Jesus!Our heartfelt prayers go out to you all.

I met Michelle very briefly - too briefly - when she was an attendant in my son and daughter-in-law's wedding. I immediately fell in love with her. Not only was she so very beautiful to look at, but her spirit, her personality, her caring were even more beautiful. I certainly wish circumstances had allowed me to spend more time with her and to get to know her better. My daughter-in-law has kept me up-to-date on Michelle's harrowing battle with cancer. I, and many in my church, had been praying for a miracle. I'm so glad that Michelle knew that God always knows best. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. What a loss for them! I hope that God will heal that emptiness you feel and bring you comfort in the many wonderful memories you have of your time with her and of knowing that, as fellow Christians, we will see her again someday.

Please accept our heartfelt sympathy on the passing of your aunt. Your family is in our thoughts and in our prayers. Mayor Minnie Blackwell and Hanahan City Council: Kevin Cox, Mike Dyson, Joel Hodges, Michael Sally, Jeff Chandler, and Dan Owens.

Sending prayers and love.......The Gosseck Family, North Charleston.

This bright and shining flame shows the light that was always shining through Michelle's eyes. Her love of the Lord, her kind spirit, her compassion, her loyalty, her strength, and her true committment to living a Christian life will be what I remember most about Michelle. I always thought of her as the epitome of a true Southern Belle, and will always be grateful for the friendship she extended to me when I first moved to South Carolina. I miss you Michelle, and I'm happy that you're finally free to be yourself again, in the comfort of our Lords embrace.

I did not know Michelle except through her Aunt Betsy Monahan. I wish I had the pleasure of knowing this very special young woman.. what a blessing she was to Betsy and to all who knew her. Michelle has left a wonderful legacy... my desire is to be more like her. God bless each of you, her family as you journey on without her physically with you. Just imagine what a joyous, glorious time she is having now!

David & Family
I am so sorry for your loss! Praying for you and both families during your time of loss! I hope and pray that you find peace and comfort! If you need anything at all please contact us.

Michelle was a kind and loving person. She will be missed. Prayers to her family at this difficult time.

David and family - I didn't know Michelle long but the time I did know her makes me wish I had met her earlier. I am so sorry for your loss. She was truely a beautiful person - so special. The funeral service was beautiful today. -

Michelle's family and friends are in my prayers. She was always kind to everyone.

Michelle was one of the most inspiring people. Although I did not know Michelle that well I did follow her story, and I have been touched by her encouraging words. She was a blessing to many people. I pray for her family and friends that they find peace in knowing that their Michelle touched so many lives. She was truly a blessing and an inspiration!

I have been praying for Michelle and her family since 2009. I did not know her personally. I, too, was diagnosed in 2009 with breast cancer. My Dr. was also Dr. Madden. I know some of the thoughts and feelings she must have had. I know that the illness brought me closer to God and helped me conquer my fear of death. I know that God answered prayers in both our lives. God wanted to take Michelle now. I pray for your peace and happiness until you see Michelle again. Betty

I have fond memories of Michelle back in high school. Her smile was infectious even then. God bless every person who has been affected by her passing. She may have lost the battle, but she's definitely won the war. I send a special blessing to her family. May God give you peace.

I wrote this two years ago when Michelle so graciously volunteered to give her Christian testimony at my church. It means even more to me now. I will never forget you, my dear sweet friend. You have been and will continue to be the biggest inspiration of my life. I love you.



"Having a professional background in business usually dominated my men (construction and the car business), one becomes rather “hardened” to daily life and circumstances. Michelle and I know each other from the dealership. At first, we would wave and exchange pleasantries from time to time. Then the storm hit in my life. My marriage was in shambles, my relationship with my son disintegrated to non-existent, and my relationship with my daughter hung like a black cloud over my head. Michelle sensed that I was in turmoil. She witnessed to me about God’s goodness and grace. Keep in mind that I already knew this, but was fighting it because I was very angry at God for the things going on in my life. I gave up church. I would not pray. I would not call out to Him for help. I wouldn’t even say my blessing because “I didn’t have to”. I justified it to myself by saying “God knows I’m mad at him”. What made me think He would be OK with that?

Michelle was relentless, both in direct and indirect ways. She became a sounding board for me. She took my burden. Finally, after many months, I bowed my heart to God again. I have Michelle to thank for that. She won me back for Christ.

The happy ending- my marriage has been healed and is guided by the goodness of Christ. I have my daughter back. And my son and I are speaking after 2 years of bitter silence.

Her diagnosis came shortly after that. My friend needed ME now. How could I possibly be as strong for her as she was for me? How could I possibly live up what God expected of me? Well, the gentleness, understanding, love, faith, kindness, unselfishness that she taught me over the prior year shone through. I hope that I was all for her as she was for me.

She, by example, has made me a better person today than I was yesterday.

I love you Michelle."

David and family- You all are in my prayers. As everyone has stated Michelle was such a special person. Her beautiful smile would light up the room. You saw God in all she did and said. Even through her hardest hours she was not thinking of herself but of others and lifting them up in prayer. I pray that I could be more like Michelle.
Michelle you will be missed. Your encourging words and your angelic smile! Watch over us until we meet again my friend~

It was such an honor to know Michelle throughout our childhood and into college. She always had that beautiful smile on her face. I will always remember her. She was an amazing woman that exemplified true faithfullness to God and what His plan was for her life. Through her illness and passing, she has had such an impact on those that have known her. My deepest sympathies to the Cooper and Mason families. May you find comfort in the memories and that unforgettable smile!

Michelle, you were one of the sweetest, strongest, most inspiring women I have ever met. You have made such a positive impact on so many lives, and when you had so much on your shoulders you still took the time out to be there for others. We will see you again someday, Heaven has gained a beautiful angel. Our thoughts and prayers go out to David and your family. Lots of Love ~

Michelle was one of the most beautiful people I have ever known, as pretty as she was on the outside, her inner beauty outshone anyone else by far. She had a possitive impact on everyone she met, and was truely a great example of Christ's love. I will always cherrish my many memories of her and her sweet, fun-loving spirit! Love you Michelle & will see you again someday on the other side, Leah

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Coop, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Love you Heather.

You were an inspiration to more than you know, Michelle....

Michelle was truly a special person even though I only knew her as a sixteen year old student in English III and not as an adult. I know her faith kept her strong throughout her struggles with her illness. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Michelle was one of the strongest women I have ever known. I am truly blessed to have known her and able to call her my friend. Even though we didn't see each other for years after high school I had never forgotten her. She always make a impact on everyones lives that she touched. That gorgeous smile never left her face no matter how much she was hurting inside. I could only hope and pray to be half the woman she is and was. We love ya Michelle Mason Cooper. Until we meet again!

Michelle was an awesome friend whose faith encouraged and blessed so many lives! Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with David and the rest of the family!

Mark, our hearts at R. L. Morrison & Sons, Inc. strongly go out to both you and your family. Michelle's beautiful face is sure to decorate both heaven and your hearts for eternity. Thinking and praying for you all.

THERE ARE NO WORDS TO SAY AT THE TIME OF YOUR LOSS.I HAD WORKED AT JIM HUDSON TOYOTA ALSO AMD MICHELLE AND I BECAME FRIENDS.WHEN SHE HEARD MY MOM WAS DIGONISED WITH CANCER SHE WROTE ME A LETTER.WHAT I REMEMBER THE MOST IN THE LETTER WAS FOR ME TO LOOK UPON GOD FOR GUIDENCE AND TO SEEK GOD'S ANSWERS IN PRAYER.

I PRAY GOD GIVES YOU THE PEACE AND COMFORT YOU NEED IN DAYS AND WEEKS TO COME. GOD NOW HAS ANOTHER ANGEL IN HIS FLOCK.

Michelle’s tremendous courage and unwavering faith continue to be pillars of inspiration to everyone who knew her. You fought a good fight, you finished your course and you kept the faith. Go rest high on that mountain, Michelle; your work on earth is done. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family, David.

Michelle my "Sissy", you are the sister I always wanted. I love you very much. My life is different because of you and your Christian friendship and love. Our talks and special times together were so very special. You were always my prayer warrior. God used you in a might way to reach many people. You will be forever missed but praise the Lord, due to our salvation in Christ, I will see you again my sister! Rest easy in the arms of Jesus.

Michelle was a dear friend of mine since kindergarten. She will be dearly missed. She fought a battle that most can not imagine. She was very couragous. I will continue to pray for her family during this difficult time. I am sorry that I can not be there to celebrate her life with friends & family.

Michelle was such a blessing to me and I know that she touched many lives with her shining light and love for Jesus.

Thoughts and prayers are with Michelle's amazing mother, Berta and all of your family at this time of great loss. Extraordinarily grateful for the tremendous faith that carries you through as the Lord strengthens you through His grace. Love you!

David, Michelle's family and David's family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Although we will always miss her, our Faith assures us that we can find comfort in knowing that she no longer suffers and is waiting to be reunited with us someday in the wonderful place God has prepared for us. God bless you all and comfort you, now and always.

Michelle, thank you for exemplifying what it means to be "sold out" for our Lord and Savior. Thank you for your strength, inspiration, and love to us your friends and your family. Enjoy giving praise and love to our God with the rest of the angels. We hold you in our hearts and rejoice that you are now released to a place where pain and agony cannot exist. Until we meet again.

The life Michelle lived set an example for us all. I'm so fortunate to have known Michelle and re-connected with her online. Her outlook on life and her battle with cancer demonstrated amazing strength and faith. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Michelle, thank you for showing every adjective of life and love that is good. You are the strongest, best person I have ever met. Infectious are your smiles and contagious that laugh! We Love you and David always. Always with each other...T.O.Y.

I met Michelle as she worked at Jim Hudson when I serviced the telephone system there for AT&T. She was indeed a special person who always had a positive outlook on life and always brightened my day. May God's love and comfort surround you all now and in the days to come. Praise God that all who know Jesus as Lord and Savior will see her again!

Michelle was a beautiful person both inside and out and she will be missed by all those who came in contact with her. She was a blessing to my family and I and we truly miss her. To David and her family, I expressed my deepest sympathy for your lost.

Michelle, you will be dearly missed by so many. We were so blessed to have known your kind spirit, faith and courageous strength. Our deepest sympathy to the Cooper and Mason families.

We are so sorry for your loss. May God's peace and grace be with you, as you go through the difficult days ahead.

David, family members & closest friends,

Praying for you in the difficult days ahead, and hoping the incredible outpouring of love and support for your dear Michelle is as encouraging to you as it has been to those of us who knew her, even briefly, as well as to strangers she never met. God truly used her life as a beacon of hope and complete trust in Him, no matter what the circumstances.

Even though this ending is not what we had wished, we are all blessed for having known her and having witnessed her faith, love and triumphant spirit through this journey. What a blessing to know we'll see her again in Heaven!

God bless you all.

I have never met a person who carried the love of Christ so deeply than Michelle. During her trials she still kept a peace that surpassed all understanding. Only our Heavenly Father can provide that peace.
Michelle demonstrated what it meant to be a true Woman of God as described in Proverbs 31. Michelle, I thank you for setting the example of what it means to be "sold-out" for Christ. Thank you for your strength, inspiration, love, and undying faith that you portrayed to us your friends and your family. Rest in peace in the grip of Our Lord and Savior and praise His name, as we here on earth celebrate your journey home. My condolences and prayers go out to David and Mason/Cooper families.

Michelle, You will be greatly missed! Your strength, and encouragement were so great! You touched many, many people along your journey. You fought harder, when most people would have given up. The one thing that I always remebered about you was your beautiful smile. Even when we were all in school, your smile was the one thing I remembered about you. It was always so sincere. You smiled when most would have cried, and I know it's because of your faith in God. Your faith in God has been amazing, and I know that's what carried you through this journey on the last few years. I know you are singing and dancing with our Lord, pain free, and cancer free! I know you are surrounded with all of the most beautiful flowers imaginable! I will not say goodbye, instead, until we meet again, all of my love, your sister in christ, Chas
I plan to continue to pray for peace and comfort for all of the family and friends, at 12 everyday, and all throughout the day and night. Much peace and Love to you all! Chas

David, I know of Michelle's passing from the email updates from the SALT ministry.
May His grace encircle you completely in the times ahead, draw you closely to Him, and may His love shine through you as it has through Michelle.

With Deepest Sympathy,
