My name is Christopher Cooper, and I am raising funds for my family after the loss of my father, Kevin Cooper. Kevin passed away on November 3, 2025, at Unity Point Hospital in Des Moines, Iowa, after years of battling severe health problems. His fight is finally over, and the Lord has come to take him home, so he suffers no more. Kevin was survived by his stepmother Eileen Cooper, sisters Melanie Vivonne and Barb Moller, nephew Matthew McDowell, nieces Coryn, Audrey, Catherine, and Jillian, sons Christopher J Cooper and Bradley M Cereitti, daughter-in-law Anne E. McIntyre, and granddaughter Shiloh Rain Cooper. He was preceded in death by his wife Janice Cooper, father James H. Cooper, sons Lonnie and Robert Cereitti, nephew Justin McDowell, and brothers-in-law Greg Moller (Barb's late husband and my uncle) and Mike Vivonne (Melanie's late husband and my uncle).

This year has been especially hard for our family. In May, we lost our uncle and my father's brother-in-law, Greg Moller, followed by my grandfather James in August, and my brother Robert Cereitti in October. Each loss has brought emotional pain and financial strain, with mounting medical bills and the costs of cremation and celebration of life services. The expenses have become overwhelming, and we are reaching out for help to bear some of these costs so we can honor Kevin and support our family through this difficult time.

If you are able to help, your support would mean so much to us. Every contribution will go directly toward medical bills, funeral expenses, and helping our family find some peace after a year of unimaginable loss. Thank you for considering a donation and for keeping our family in your thoughts.
